Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Griggs & Butterworth, James N. Butterworth, for appellant.

Telford, Stewart & Stephens, Joe K. Telford, for appellees.


SMITH, Judge.

This condemnation case raises substantial questions concerning (1) whether our automatic dismissal statute (Ga. L. 1953, Nov. Sess., pp. 242, 243; 1967, pp. 557, 558 (Code Ann. § 3-512)) operated to extinguish the condemnees' appeal of a special master award, and (2) whether the issue of additional damages for attorney fees and expenses of litigation was properly handled. We find no error and affirm.

I. Automatic Dismissal.
