Abstract: The method of Hamilton-Jacobi is used to obtain geodesics around non- Riemannian planar torsional defects.It is shown that by perturbation expansion in the Cartan torsion the geodesics obtained are parabolic curves along the plane x-z when the wall is located at the plane x-y.In the absence of defects the geodesics reduce to straight lines.The family of parabolas depend on the torsion parameter and describe a gravitationally repulsive domain wall.Torsion here plays the role of the Burgers vector in solid state physics.
