Supreme Court of Georgia·Decided February 23, 1914·Published·Cited by 9 cases

Opinion

Atkinson, J.

Where, to a suit on a note, the defendant admits the due execution of the note and pleads total failure of consideration, the burden is upon him to establish that plea. The evidence was not of such a character as to demand a verdict for the defendant, and the court erred in directing the same.

Judgment reversed.

All the Justices concur.
