JUDICIAL DECISIONS
Retention of control over orders and judgments. —Courts of record retain full control over orders and judgments during the term at which the orders and judgments are rendered, and in the exercise of sound discretion may revise or vacate the orders and judgments, as ends of justice may require, and such discretion, unless manifestly abused, will not be controlled by courts of review; this inherent power of the court extends to all orders and judgments, except those founded on jury verdicts. Hall v. First Nat'l Bank, 87 Ga. App. 142, 73 S. E.2d 252, 1952 Ga. App. LEXIS 632 (1952).
