Knight v. Suddeth & Crenshaw

Beck, J. 1. The remedy afforded by the provisions in the Civil Code, § 3628, for attacking a deed upon the ground of forgery, is merely cumulative. Sibley v. Haslam, 75 Ga. 493. 2.

One of the deeds in the case at bar, which was a necessary link in the plaintiff’s chain of title, having been attacked for forgery, and the evi [232] dence upon that issue being conflicting, this court will not disturb the judgment of the lower court in denying the injunction prayed for.
