Vol. 27, No. 1 (1975) Annual Survey of Georgia Law
EDITOR'S NOTE
This survey is intended to cover cases reported within the survey period, June, 1974, through May, 1975, rather than cases decided during that period. Only those cases which, in the author's opinion, are a significant development or restatement of the law have been the subject of comment. It has been our goal to weed out from the mass of appellate opinion those decisions which are of particular importance to the Bar. In addition there are references to cases outside the survey period where necessary to the discussion.
This year's articles on Domestic Relations and Remedies cover a two year survey period since those areas were not included in the 1974 Georgia Survey. A special feature on state and local tax remedies has been substituted for the regular State and Local Tax Survey. Articles on Agency, Juvenile Law, and Administrative Law have been omitted this year. We had added a few special articles which we feel are of particular interest at this time.
Additionally, we have included a table of cases in the hope that it will enhance the utility of the Survey as a research tool.
The quality of the Review is ultimately dependent on the competency of our authors. We would therefore like to extend our deep appreciation to all those who gave of their time and expertise so we could present the following volume.
