Supreme Court of Georgia

Decided June 15, 1867

Supreme Court of Georgia · decided 1867-06-15

<p>New parties may be added to an original bill, by an amendment in the nature of a supplemental bill; and the representatives of deceased persons may be made parties by scire facias.</p>

Decided 1867-06-15

■Walker, J.

¶1We see no error in this record. The Court decided that an amendment, in the nature of a supplemental bill, might be made; and that the representatives of deceased persons should not be parties to the bill until after they should have been called upon by scire faeias to show cause why they should not be made parties to the litigation. We think this whole matter was left to the discretion of the Circuit Judge —Code, Sec. 4093 — and we see no abuse of his discretion in this case.

¶2Judgment affirmed.
