Williams v. Greenfield Equipment Co., Inc.
| Decision Date | 08 September 1987 |
| Docket Number | No. 74954,74954 |
| Citation | 184 Ga.App. 239,361 S.E.2d 199 |
| Parties | WILLIAMS v. GREENFIELD EQUIPMENT COMPANY, INC. |
| Court | Georgia Court of Appeals |
Peter J. Rice, Jr., Eatonton, Andrew H. Marshall, Athens, for appellant.
E. Davison Burch, Athens, for appellee.
The sole issue in this appeal is whether the trial court violated OCGA § 9-10-182 by allowing two attorneys to argue for the defendant during closing argument. Both the plaintiff and the defendant employed double counsel. One attorney for the plaintiff began closing argument; the two defense attorneys then argued; and the plaintiff's second attorney concluded the argument. Under Taylor v. Powell, 158 Ga.App. 339, 280 S.E.2d 386 (1981), this procedure did not violate OCGA § 9-10-182.
Judgment affirmed.
