    Parks v. Stevens.
    Decided November 1, 1917.
    Complaint; from city court of Hall county — Judge Wheeler. January 6, 1917.
    
      W. M. Johnson, for plaintiff in error. J. G. Collins, contra.
   Bloodworth, J.

“It may be now considered as settled that this court will not, under any circumstances, reverse a judgment granting a first new trial, whether the grant be general upon all the grounds of the motion or special upon one or more grounds only, or whether it be upon a ground which involves questions of evidence or upon a ground which involves purely questions of law; unless it is made to appear that no other verdict than the one rendered could possibly have been returned under the law and facts of the case. Unless the case can be brought within the exception just stated, .it is useless for parties to bring before this court the judgment of a trial judge granting a first new trial.” Weinkle v.
