Bowers v. Fulton County , 225 Ga. 745 ( 1969 )

Undercoeler, Justice,

dissenting. In my opinion the question in this case involves the construction of a constitutional provision rather than its application. Construction is the determination of the meaning of the provision. Application is involved only where the provision is precise or has been conclusively defined by this court. To decide this case the meaning of the provision must be ascertained. Therefore the Supreme Court has jurisdiction. Woodside v. City of Atlanta, 214 Ga. 75, 76 (103 SE2d 108).

I am authorized to state that Judge T. 0. Marshall joins in this dissent.
