44 Ga. App. 664 | Ga. Ct. App. | 1932
The first trial of this case resulted in a verdict and judgment in favor of the defendant. The plaintiff’s motion for a new trial was overruled, and on review the judgment was reversed by this court because the judge erred in not sustaining the motion to strike the defendant’s answer. McCray Refrigerator Sales Corp. v. New, 42 Ga. App. 703 (157 S. E. 370). Subsequently, in the court below, the defendant offered an amendment to his answer, which was allowed subject to demurrer, and a demurrer, thereafter interposed by the plaintiff, was overruled. Plaintiff then offered a plea of res judicata, in which it was contended that the amendment sought to be filed by the defendant should be disallowed for the reason that the former adjudication by this court amounted to a final determination of the case on its merits. This plea
Writ of error dismissed.
