§ 51-1-7. When infraction of public duty gives cause of action to individual

Universal Citation: GA Code § 51-1-7 (2017)

Injury suffered in common with the community, though to a greater extent, will not give a right of action to an individual for the infraction of some public duty. In order for an individual to have such a right of action, there must be some special damage to him, in which the public has not participated.
