"[W]here the trial judge, sitting as the trior of the facts, hears the evidence, his findings based upon conflicting evidence is analogous to the verdict of a jury and should not be disturbed by a reviewing court if there is any evidence to support it." West v. West, 228 Ga. 397, 398 ( 185 S.E.2d 763) (1971); Lester Colodny Const. Co. v. Allen, 129 Ga. App. 545 ( 199 S.E.2d 917) (1973). Here there was ample legal evidence to support the findings of fact, and there is no error in the trial judge's conclusions of law.¹ Judgment affirmed. Deen, P. J., and Marshall, J., concur.
