JUDICIAL DECISIONS
Article inapplicable to court clerk taking excessive fees. —Statutes imposing penalties must be given a strict construction, and, under such a construction, it is obvious that the statutes do not impose a penalty on the clerk of the municipal court for taking or demanding “any greater fee than the law allows,” or for an overcharge of costs. Caldwell v. Chambers, 61 Ga. App. 156, 6 S. E.2d 120, 1939 Ga. App. LEXIS 241 (1939).
