Supreme Court of Georgia April 24, 1901 (Sanders v. State)

Simmons, C. J.

The record discloses that one Herrington met Stephen Alexander on the public road and had a difficulty with him. Herrington sought the assistance of one of his 'friends, who advised him to obtain a peace warrant and have Alexander arrested and bound over to keep the peace. Herrington, in pursuance of this advice, went to a magistrate and had a peace warrant issued for Alexander.
