Herald Alexander v. Mary A. White

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ June 15, 2022 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A22A1244. HERALD ALEXANDER v. MARY A. WHITE. In this breach of contract action, the trial court denied Herald Alexander’s motion for partial summary judgment. Alexander filed a notice of appeal from the trial court’s order. We lack jurisdiction. The denial of a motion for summary judgment must be appealed in accordance with the interlocutory appeal procedures set forth in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), including obtaining a certificate of immediate review from the trial court. See Georgia Central Credit Union v. Cole, 239 Ga. 870, 870-871 ( 239 SE2d 37 ) (1977); Sharpe’s Appliance Store, Inc. v. Anderson, 161 Ga. App. 112 ( 289 SE2d 312 ) (1982); see also Lumbermen’s Underwriting Alliance v. Atlantic Wood Indus., Inc., 207 Ga. App. 392, 392 ( 427 SE2d 861 ) (1993). Alexander’s failure to follow the required appellate procedure deprives us of jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED. See Pace Constr. Corp. v. Northpark Assocs., 215 Ga. App. 438, 439 ( 450 SE2d 828 ) (1994).
