This case came before the court below on a certiorari from the corporation court of Blackshear, in the county of Pierce, created by the act of 1872, in which a proceeding had been instituted to foreclose a laborer’s lien, under the provisions of the 1976th section of the Code. On the hear*212ing of tlie certiorari, containing the alleged errors complained of at the trial in the corporation court, the superior court dismissed it, and affirmed the judgment of the corporation court, whereupon the plaintiff in certiorari excepted.
It appears from the bill of exceptions that the fi. fa., which issued on the affidavit of foreclosure, was levied on certain described bricks at the kiln of Kendrick & Moore, for whom the work for which the lien claimed was' alleged to have been performed. The bricks so levied on were claimed by Brantley as his property, and, upon the trial of that claim, the jury found the following verdict: “We, the jury, find a verdict in favor of plaintiff, with ten per cent, damages.” It appears from the bill of exceptions that it was admitted, by the answer to the certiorari, that there was no evidence that the bricks levied on were the property of Kendrick & Moore, or that the same were in their possession at the time of the levy, and that the corporation court refused to dismiss the lien proceedings because it was not alleged in plaintiff’s affidavit, nor proved at the trial, that the contract for the labor for which the lien was claimed, had been completed, as required by the 1976th section of the Code, and because it was not alleged in plaintiff’s affidavit that a demand was made for payment of Kendrick & Moore, or either of them, after the debt became due.
In view of the facts of this case, as disclosed in the record, the court erred in dismissing the certiorari and affirming the judgment of the corporation court. Let the judgment of the court below be reversed, on the ground that the affidavit on which the execution was based was insufficient to authorize the execution to issue.
Judgment reversed.
