Supreme Court of Georgia August 15, 1877 (Dibble v. Pease)

Blecklet, Judge.

From the passage of the relief act of 1868 (pamph., p. 148) until the debtor in this case took his first step to av&il himself of its benefits, was about nine years. On the face of the act'there is no limitation, but in the nature of things, some diligence must have been expected, especially in the delicate matter of re-opening and re-examining judgments.
