Supreme Court of Georgia.

Submitted September 9, 1958.

Decided October 10, 1958.

Howell C. Ravan, for plaintiff in error.

Hicks & Henderson, contra.

HEAD, Justice.

The bill of exceptions assigns as error a judgment of the court sustaining the demurrers of the plaintiff to the defendant's answer and cross-action. Held: *479 The dismissal of a cross-bill or answer is not such a final disposition of a cause as may be reviewed in this court. Code § 6-701, as amended by Ga. L. 1957, pp. 229-232; Knights of the Ku Klux Klan v. Terrell, 155 Ga. 374 (116 S. E. 793); White v. Chisolm, 160 Ga. 177 (127 S. E. 140); Byrd v. Equitable Life Assurance Society, 184 Ga. 178 (190 S. E. 584); Darden v. Roberts, 193 Ga. 637 (19 S. E. 2d 270); Sanders v. Sanders, 212 Ga. 244 (91 S. E. 2d 604); Bowman v. Poole, 212 Ga. 697 (95 S. E. 2d 375). The amendment to the rules of practice and procedure, approved January 19, 1957 (Ga. L. 1957, pp. 224-248), did not repeal or modify the rule that the dismissal of a cross-action on demurrer is not such a final judgment as may be reviewed by direct bill of exceptions.

Writ of error dismissed. All the Justices concur.
