TOWNSEND v. NORTHCUTT.

JORDAN, Presiding Judge.

The trial judge did not err in denying the plaintiff's motion to compel answers to interrogatories, the defendant in fi. fa. having responded to the interrogatories by stating under oath: "I refuse to answer on the grounds that this may tend to incriminate me and work a forfeiture of my estate." See Art. I, Sec. I, Par. VI, Constitution of Georgia, Code Ann. § 2-106; Code § 38-1205; Empire Life Ins. Co. v. Einstein, 12 Ga. App. 380, 383 ( 77 S.E. 209); Bishop v. Bishop, 157 Ga. 408 ( 121 S.E. 305); Bass v. Bass, 222 Ga. 378, 384 ( 149 S.E.2d 818).

Judgment affirmed. Eberhardt and Pannell, JJ., concur.

SUBMITTED JANUARY 9, 1970 — DECIDED FEBRUARY 3, 1970 — REHEARING DENIED FEBRUARY 19, 1970 — CERT. APPLIED FOR.
