Supreme Court of Georgia·Decided July 15, 1871·Published·Cited by 4 cases

Opinion

McCay, Judge.

We decided in the case of Davis vs. Meyers, 41 Georgia, 95, that the homestead exemption provision of the Constitution did not protect the property set apart, if it was part of the crop made on a rented place, from the debt due for the rent.

We held that rent was, in such a ease, in the nature of purchase-money of the crop, and was included within the exception .

We see nothing to alter our opinion, and we therefore reverse the judgment.
