Opinion

Bloodworth, J.

“In this ease the motion for a new trial contained only the usual general grounds. There was some slight evidence authorizing the verdict; and the verdict having been approved by the trial judge, under the repeated and uniform rulings of this court and of the Supreme Court a reviewing court is powerless to interfere. When the verdict is apparently decidedly against the weight of the evidence, the' trial judge has a wide discretion as to granting or refusing a new trial; but whenever there is any evidence, however slight, to support a verdict which has been approved by the trial judge, this court is absolutely without authority to control the judgment of the trial court.” Toole v. Jones, 19 Ga. App. 24 (90 S. E. 732); Cook v. McMurria, 19 Ga. App. 491 (91 S. E. 785); McCarty v. Keys, 19 Ga. App. 494 (91 S. E. 875) ; Phillips-Boyd Publishing Co. v. Bird, 19 Ga. App. 808 (92 S. E. 287).

Judgment affirmed.

Broyles, P. J., and Harwell, J., concur.
