Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ October 09, 2015 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A16I0022. MOUNTAINBROOK OF BARTOW COUNTY HOMEOWNER’S ASSOC., INC. f/k/a MOUNTAINBROOK PROPERTY OWNERS ASSOC. v. NORTHSIDE BANK.

In this action to foreclose on liens and to collect unpaid homeowner’s association assessments and attorney fees, the trial court granted summary judgment in favor of plaintiff Mountainbrook of Bartow County Homeowner’s Association, Inc. (“Mountainbrook”). Defendant Northside Bank filed a notice of appeal, which has been docketed in this Court as Case No. A16A0005. Mountainbrook subsequently filed a motion for supersedeas bond in the trial court. In its order granting Mountainbrook’s motion, the court: (i) directed Northside Bank to deposit $279,262.03 into the registry of the court; and (ii) provided that post-judgment interest on this sum shall abate upon receipt thereof by the clerk of court.

Mountainbrook has filed both a notice of appeal and an application for interlocutory review of this order, seeking to challenge the provision for the abatement of post-judgment interest. Because a direct appeal in this case is pending before this Court, however, no such application is required. See Owens v. Green Tree Servicing LLC, 300 Ga. App. 22, 24-25 (2) (684 SE2d 99) (2009).

“This Court will grant a timely application for interlocutory review if the order complained of is subject to direct appeal and the applicants have not otherwise filed a notice of appeal.” Spivey v. Hembree, 268 Ga. App. 485, 486 n.1 (602 SE2d 246) (2004). Here, however, Mountainbrook has filed a timely notice of appeal, which has been docketed in this Court as Case No. A16A0220. Therefore, this application is superfluous and is hereby DISMISSED.
