183 Ga. 206 | Ga. | 1936
This was. an action for land, which resulted in a verdict for the plaintiff. The defendants moved for a new trial on the general and two special grounds. It is admitted by movants '(plaintiff's in error) that only two issues are raised. One is whether or not, after application for a year’s support and return of the appraisers and order
1. The time when the return of the appraisers was recorded is immaterial. Vaughn v. Fitzgerald, 112 Ga. 517 (37 S. E. 752). The cases of Selph v. Selph, 133 Ga. 409 (65 S. E. 881), and Watson v. Watson, 143 Ga. 425 (85 S. E. 324), are not in conflict.
2. The court properly refused to admit testimony to the effect that the applicant for year’s support undertook to withdraw it. Records can not be disputed by parol evidence; and moreover, the applicant dealt with the property as if it had been awarded to her as a year’s support.
Judgment affirmed.
