OX BREECHES MFG. CO.

v.BIRD.

(No. 43.)

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Jan. 18, 1907.

Exceptions, Bill of—Final Judgment.

The bill of exceptions in this case must be dismissed, upon the authority of Newberry v. Tenant, 49 S. E. G21, 121 Ga. 5G1; Kibben v. Coastwise Dredging Co., 48 S. E. 330, 120 Ga. 899, and Harrell v. Tift, 70 Ga. 730.

[Ed. Note.—For cases in point, see Cent. Dig. vol. 2, Appeal and Error, § 329.]

(Syllabus by the Court.)

Action between the Ox Breeches Manufacturing Company and one Bird. From the judgment, the company brings error. Dismissed.

E. C. Collins, for plaintiff in error.

H. C. Beasley and James K. Hines, for defendant in error.

POWELL, J. Under the authority cited in the headuote, the bill of exceptions in this case must be dismissed. While we think that the decision in Haskins v. Bank, 100 Ga. 216, 27 S. E. 985, is more strictly in accordance with sound logic, yet, since this last-named case is expressly cited and overruled in Kibben v. Coastwise Dredging Co., 120 Ga. 899, 48 S. E. 330, we are under the constitutional amendment creating this court constrained to follow the rule now definitely settled by the Supreme Court. While the bill of exceptions in this case recites that a final judgment has been rendered, no exception is taken to such final judgment. Striking or refusing to strike a defendant's plea is not a final judgment Turner v. Camp, 110 Ga. 631, 36 S. E. 76; Bell v. Stewart, 116 Ga. 714, 43 S. E. 70.

Therefore the writ of error is dismissed.
