Applicability to unincorporated labor union.

- An unincorporated labor union was such a society as was contemplated by former Code 1933, §§ 22-409 through 22-412 and 22-415 (see now O.C.G.A. §§ 14-5-46 through14-5-48 and O.C.G.A. § 14-5-50), and was not subject to suit as an association of individuals, the suit not purporting to proceed against the members individually or as partners, and it not having been incorporated and not having had its name, style, objects, and the names of its trustees or officers recorded as required by law.
