42461 | Ga. Ct. App. | Jan 11, 1967

Eberhardt, Judge.

Conceding, but without deciding, that the evidence demanded a finding that the defendant was negligent and that this negligence was the proximate cause of the automobile collision, the evidence authorized but.did not demand a finding that plaintiff had suffered any injury attributable to the collision. The jury is the judge of the veracity of parties and witnesses; under the evidence in this record they were authorized to disbelieve plaintiff’s claim of injury as a result of the collision. Accordingly the judgment for defendant, based upon the verdict of the jury, will *80not be disturbed. Miller v. Dean, 113 Ga. App. 869 (1) (150 SE2d 191).
