JUDICIAL DECISIONS

Filing of remittitur merely annuls and vacates orders which have been reversed, leaving examiner's report standing as before, and restoring exceptions to their original status - neither sustained nor overruled, but ripe for disposition according to law. Holton v. Lankford, 189 Ga. 506, 6 S.E.2d 304 (1939).

Effect of reversal by Supreme Court is to place case where it stood prior thereto; and thereafter the trial court should enter order sustaining exceptions of law, and a finding sustaining exceptions of fact when a jury trial is not demanded. Holton v. Lankford, 189 Ga. 506, 6 S.E.2d 304 (1939).
