36 Ga. 402 | Ga. | 1867
1. The Court below refused to set-off one judgment against the other on the ground that Skrine’s was invalid. Why invalid, we are unable to understand. It was rendered by a Court of competent jurisdiction, and was therefore valid until set aside by a proceeding instituted directly for that purpose. It could not be collaterally attacked on account of any irregularity in its procurement. Walker vs. Morris, 14 Ga. R., 323; Cochran vs. Davis, 20 Ga. R., 581.
Judgment reversed.
