JUDICIAL DECISIONS

"Public Officer" Defined

Editor's notes.

- In light of the similarity of the statutory provisions, decisions under former Ga. L. 1890-91, p. 109, § 1, former Civil Code 1895, § 5216, former Civil Code 1910, § 5803, and former Code 1933, § 38-606, are included in the annotations for this Code section. The reader is also advised to consult the annotations under O.C.G.A. § 24-9-920 for annotations regarding the authentication of Georgia state and county records, and O.C.G.A. § 24-9-922, for annotations regarding foreign state laws and records.

In general.

- The former statute came from an Act of Legislature (Ga. L. 1890-91, p. 109). Former Code 1882, § 3816 applied exclusively to public officers of this state and the several counties thereof and therefore could have no reference to certificates signed by municipal officers. In fact, exemplification of the records of municipal corporations were not admissible at all until made so by former Ga. L. 1890-91, p. 109, and the former merely provided that the records shall be admitted in evidence when certified under seal. Metropolitan St. R.R. v. Johnson, 90 Ga. 500, 16 S.E. 49 (1892) (decided under Ga. L. 1890-91, p. 109, § 1); Western & Atl. R.R. v. Hix, 104 Ga. 11, 30 S.E. 424 (1898); Farrar Lumber Co. v. City of Dalton, 20 Ga. App. 138, 92 S.E. 946 (1917) (decided under former Civil Code 1895, § 5216); Harrison v. Central of Ga. Ry., 44 Ga. App. 167, 160 S.E. 694 (1931); R.O.H. Properties, Inc. v. Westside Elec. Co., 151 Ga. App. 857, 261 S.E.2d 767 (1979) (decided under former Civil Code 1910, § 5803);(decided under former Civil Code 1910, § 5803);(decided under former Code 1933, § 38-606).
