Wayne Tyler v. Cach LLC

Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ August 17, 2015 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A15A2262. WAYNE TYLER v. CACH LLC.

Wayne Tyler appeals the state court’s order granting the plaintiff’s motion for summary judgment and awarding the plaintiff $5,685.53 plus post-judgment interest in this contract dispute. We lack jurisdiction.

“Although the grant of a motion for summary judgment is in general directly appealable, where the amount of the judgment is $10,000 or less, an application for discretionary appeal is required.” (Punctuation omitted.) Ca-Shar, Inc. v. McKesson Corp., 204 Ga. App. 865, 865 (420 SE2d 810) (1992); see also OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (6). As the total judgment in favor of the plaintiff is for less than $10,000, the entry of summary judgment provides no basis for a direct appeal in this case. See Ca-Shar, Inc., supra at 865-866. Because Tyler failed to follow the required procedure, we lack jurisdiction to consider his appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED. See Jennings v. Moss, 235 Ga. App. 357 (509 SE2d 655) (1998).
