1. Where an action was brought for damages for an alleged assault and battery, and the defendant offered a plea setting forth his acquittal in a criminal prosecution for the same alleged offense, there was no error in disallowing the plea or in refusing to admit evidence in support thereof. Tumlin v. Parrott, 82 Ga. 735; Cottingham v. Weeks, 54 Ga. 275. See also S. A. L. Ry. v. O’Quin, 124 Ga. 357.
