48 S.E.2d 833 | Ga. | 1948
Where a suit for land describes certain realty, alleges title thereto, and also claims rents for which judgment is prayed, and where in said petition the right to title and rents is predicated upon a previous decision of this court between the same parties and involving the title to the same land, which decision is attacked as being erroneous, the petition was subject to general demurrer.
The exception here is to an order sustaining a general demurrer.
(After stating the foregoing facts.) While there is much in the petition which would be germane to a motion for a rehearing in the previous decision of this court inLankford v. Holton,
That Mrs. Lankford has no title to the property, either legal or equitable, was previously determined in the above-referred-to land-registration case. Having been so settled by this court, the question can not be relitigated either directly or indirectly in another action. Lankford v. Holton,
Judgment affirmed. Jenkins, Chief Justice, Duckworth,Presiding Justice, Wyatt, Head, and Candler, Justices, and JudgeA. M. Anderson concur.
