Branan & Schmitz Realty, Inc. v. Ellis

Georgia Court of Appeals November 6, 1974

Branan & Schmitz Realty, Inc. v. Ellis, 211 S.E.2d 173 (1974)

133 Ga. App. 224; 1974 Ga. App. LEXIS 1025

Quillian, Bell, Clark

Opinion

Quillian, Judge.

Where as in the case sub judice the defendant’s counterclaim is still pending in the trial court, an appeal complaining of the granting of a judgment on the *225 pleadings for the defendant in the main complaint is not a final judgment. Without a proper certificate from the trial judge, the appeal is therefore premature. Brown v. Elliott, 115 Ga. App. 89, 90 (153 SE2d 665); Conte Enterprises v. Romax Const. Co., 128 Ga. App. 121 (195 SE2d 798); O’Kelley v. Evans, 223 Ga. 512 (156 SE2d 450).

Submitted October 7, 1974 Decided November 6, 1974. Moffett, Henderson, Jones & Barnwell, Taylor W. Jones, Walter N Adams, for appellant. Davis, Matthews & Quigley, L. Brown Bivens, for appellee.

Appeal dismissed.

Bell, C. J., and Clark, J., concur.
