Opinion

45980.

ARGUED MARCH 2, 1971.

DECIDED APRIL 6, 1971.

Appellate procedure. Fulton Civil Court. Before Judge Camp.

Allen, Smith Tomlinson, Ashton K. Tomlinson, T. M. Allen, Jr., for appellant.

Hansell, Post, Brandon Dorsey, Barrington H. Branch, for appellee.

EVANS, Judge.

This case is controlled adversely to the appellant by the decisions of the Supreme Court in Hurst v. Starr, 226 Ga. 42 ( 172 S.E.2d 604) and Smith v. Sorrough, 226 Ga. 744 ( 177 S.E.2d 246). The appeal is from an order directing a verdict against the appellant. As held in the above cases, this is not an appealable judgment under any of the provisions of the Appellate Practice Act (Ga. L. 1965, p. 18; 1968, pp. 1072, 1073; Code Ann. § 6-701). Under the above authorities, we have no alternative but to dismiss the appeal.

Appeal dismissed. Jordan, P. J., and Quillian, J., concur.

ARGUED MARCH 2, 1971 — DECIDED APRIL 6, 1971.
