Billy M. Faulkner et al.. v. Sonia L. Crumbley et al..

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue was whether the county ordinance regarding stray livestock preempted state law under Section 6-34 of the Jasper County Code of Ordinances. The Georgia Court of Appeals reversed the trial court's denial because the evidence showed ordinary care and the state statute preempted the local ordinance.
