Answer:
The following is a GA statute:
44-9-4. Parol license; when revocable; when easement running with land.
A parol license to use another's land is revocable at any time if its
revocation does no harm to the person to whom it has been granted. A parol
license is not revocable when the licensee has acted pursuant thereto and
in so doing has incurred expense; in such case, it becomes an easement
running with the land.
