49 Ga. 367 | Ga. | 1873
This was an action brought by the plaintiffs against the defendant, Glendenning, administrator of Reed, and his securities, on his administration bond, alleging a devastavit by the administrator of the assets of his intestate, which came into his hands to be administered. The defendants pleaded plene administravit to the plaintiffs’ action. On the trial, the jury found a verdict for the sum of $75 00 in favor of the plaintiffs, who made a motion for a new trial, which was overruled, and the plaintiffs excepted. The defendants also excepted, on the ground that the plaintiffs could not maintain their action against the defendant and his securities on his bond, on an unliquidated demánd against Reed, the intestate.
Let the judgment of the Court below be affirmed.
