Broyles, C. J. A mere temporary loan of property, without hire or other benefit to the person lending, is not such a fiduciary bailment as would make the stealing or conversion of the property larceny after trust. Barksdale v. Slate, 28 Ga.
Citator
UpLaw has not yet analyzed Davis v. State. The absence of a flag is not a finding that it is good law.

A mere temporary loan of property, without hire or other benefit to the person lending, is not such a fiduciary bailment as would make the stealing or conversion of the property larceny after trust. Barksdale v. Slate, 28 Ga. App. 535 (112 S. E. 165).
Under the above-stated ruling and the facts of the instant case, the defendant’s conviction of larceny after trust was unauthorized, and the refusal to grant him a new trial was error.
Judgment reversed.
Luke and Bloodworth, JJ., concur.
