Contract partly in writing and partly in parol is considered parol contract.

- When contract is not wholly in writing, but is partly in writing and partly in parol, entire contract is considered as one in parol. Jankowski v. Taylor, 154 Ga. App. 752, 269 S.E.2d 871, aff'd, 246 Ga. 804, 273 S.E.2d 16 (1980).

Effect of parol evidence rule generally.

- The parol evidence rule fixes the finality of a written contract which is unmixed with fraud respecting the subject matter. It is, moreover, a rule of substantive law, and though parol evidence be admitted without objection or over objection, it is without probative value to vary terms of a written contract. Crooks v. Crim, 159 Ga. App. 745, 285 S.E.2d 84 (1981).

Effect of oral agreement relating to condition not expressed in note.

- An oral agreement between the parties, made contemporaneously with the execution of a note or prior thereto, relating to a condition not expressed in the note, is incompetent to change the contract as represented on the face of the note. Curtis v. First Nat'l Bank, 158 Ga. App. 379, 280 S.E.2d 404 (1981).

Contracts for insurance must be in writing and may not be partially parol. Atlanta Metro Taxicab Group, Inc. v. Bekele, 154 Ga. App. 831, 269 S.E.2d 902 (1980).

Georgia law does not require real estate listings to be reduced to writing and oral contracts are enforceable. Thomas v. Memory, 154 Ga. App. 756, 270 S.E.2d 24 (1980).

Breach of oral contract proven.

- Evidence was sufficient to support a jury's verdict finding a breach of contract in a real estate development dispute, as there was no requirement for the agreement to be in writing where the agreement did not directly involve the sale or conveyance of an interest in land; plaintiff proved all of the essential elements of the breach of contract claim through plaintiff's testimony and that of another person. Cline v. Lee, 260 Ga. App. 164, 581 S.E.2d 558 (2003).
