33 S.E.2d 904 | Ga. | 1945
Where to a petition in the common-law form of ejectment, sufficient on its face, there was filed a "supplemental petition" which disclosed that one of the joint lessors, in the only demise pleaded, had conveyed the property in question to another before suit was filed, and the action was dismissed as to one of the four defendants upon his general demurrer, and the judgment of the trial court was affirmed by this court Heath v. Miller,
Where one of the joint lessors, in whom a demise is laid in an action in the common-law form of ejectment, dies pending the action, the demise is amendable by substituting his sole heirs at law as parties, where it is shown that there is no administration on his estate. Towns v. Mathews,
Judgment reversed. All the Justices concur.
