Pig’n Whistle Sandwich Shops, Inc. v. Keith, 167 Ga. 735, 146 S.E. 455, 1929 Ga. LEXIS 31 (1929). Order granting permanent injunction on interlocutory hearing not void where modifiable. - An order
making a temporary restraining order permanent, issued by a court having jurisdiction of the person and subject matter, and in a proper proceeding therefore was not void, though erroneously entered on an interlocutory hearing, where it could have been modified so as to be operative only until final trial or further order. Leggett v. Alazos, 209 Ga. 477, 74 S.E.2d 69, 1953 Ga. LEXIS 290 (1953).
