Court of Appeals of Georgia

134 S.E.2d 879 (Ga. Ct. App. 1964)

Opinion

40369.

DECIDED JANUARY 7, 1964.

Workmen's compensation. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Moore.

Daniel B. Clark, for plaintiff in error.

Greene, Neely, Buckley DeRieux, Burt DeRieux, James H. Moore, contra.


1. The claimant's testimony, the only evidence offered to prove notice of accident as required by Code § 114-303, was equivocal, vague and contradictory and showed that no notice of injury from the accident was given at all. Under these circumstances, we cannot say that the finding of the director, that the notice required was not given, was unsupported by the evidence. See Royal Indem. Co. v. Coulter, 213 Ga. 277 ( 98 S.E.2d 899); Employer's Mut. Liab. Ins. Co. v. Holloway, 98 Ga. App. 265 ( 105 S.E.2d 370); Kresge v. Holley, 104 Ga. App. 144 ( 121 S.E.2d 182).

2. In view of the above ruling, it is unnecessary to pass upon the other questions argued upon appeal.

Judgment affirmed. Bell, P. J., and Hall, J., concur.

DECIDED JANUARY 7, 1964.
