MONTAQUILA v. CRANFORD

48357, 48358.

129 Ga. App. 787 (1973)

201 S.E.2d 335

MONTAQUILA v. CRANFORD et al. (two cases).

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Decided October 3, 1973.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Dickens, Hall & Greene, J. Edward Hall, for appellants.

Harris, Russell & Watkins, Philip R. Taylor, David B. Higdon, for appellees.


CLARK, Judge.

Does the 1971 statute reducing the exemption from suit of a deceased's estate representative to six months from twelve months operate retroactively? That question arises in this appeal by plaintiffs below whose cases were dismissed upon a decision that the legislative reduction caused their claims for personal injuries to be barred by the two-year statute of limitation provided in Code § 3-1004.
