Annotations
JUDICIAL DECISIONS Editor’s notes. - In light of the similarity of the statutory provisions, decisions under former Code 1933, § 68-608 are included in the annotations for this Code section. Authority of commission to transfer truck operations. - When a Class “B” certificate authorizing a holder to transport household, kitchen, office furniture, and store fixtures between all points in Georgia, which, under former Code 1933, § 68-607, the commission was
authorized to “suspend, revoke, alter, or amend,” and under former Code 1933, § 68-608, was authorized to transfer was altered or amended and transferred, being limited to between all points within a 20 mile radius of Atlanta there was no merit in the contention that the commission was without authority to transplant a one-truck operation from the outskirts of Calhoun to an eleven-truck operation in the metropolis of Atlanta.
