Opinions

Simmons, C. J.

Where a 'second verdict has been rendered on substantially t'he same issues of fact in favor of the same party, the rule of discretion applicable to the first grant of a new trial does not apply, and if at the last trial there was nothing objectionable in the rulings of the presiding judge, and the evidence, though conflicting, supported the second verdict, it should not be set aside. Veal et al. v. Robinson, 76 Ga. 838.

Judgment reversed.
