171 Ga. 188 | Ga. | 1930
1. A motion to strike an equitable amendment filed by a claimant in aid of liis statutory claim, being in the nature of a general demurrer, the overruling of such motion can not be made a ground of a motion for a new trial. Leathers v. Leathers, 132 Ga. 211 (2) (63 S. E. 1118); Hawkins v. Studdard, 132 Ga. 265 (63 S. E. 852, 131 Am. St. R. 190); Lee v. McCarty, 132 Ga. 698 (3) (64 S. E. 997); Tompkins v. American Land Co., 139 Ga. 377 (77 S. E. 623).
2. “A ground of the motion for new trial, assigning error upon the overruling by the court of a motion to rule out evidence, which does not set forth in substance the evidence alleged to be objectionable or attach the same to the motion as an exhibit, is incomplete, and the court will not look to other grounds of the motion nor to the record to complete such ground.” Clare v. Drexler, 152 Ga. 419 (3) (110 S. E. 176).
3. Refusal to appoint a receiver on oral motion of a plaintiff in fi. fa., made at the trial of a claim case in which an equitable amendment has been filed in aid of the claim, is not a matter that can be complained of by motion for a new trial.
4. “Where land is conveyed by a vendor to a purchaser, who simultaneously conveys it to another as security for a loan of money used in discharging the purchase-price of the land, the two conveyances being parts of one transaction, the title passes through the borrower without being affected, as against the lender, by the lien of a judgment against the borrower which would have attached had the title remained in him. This principle applies as well where a part of the purchase-money is paid, and the security deed is given to secure the balance, as where none of the purchase-money is paid, and the security deed is given to secure the whole.” Protestant Episcopal Church v. Lowe Co., 131 Ga. 666 (63 S. E. 136, 127 Am. St. R. 243); Missouri State Life Insurance Co. v. Barnes Construction Co., 147 Ga. 677 (95 S. E. 244).
5. There was no exception to the direction of the verdict on the ground that there were issues that should have been submitted to the jury. The evi
Judgment affirmed.
