Edward T. Ridley v. Arrons Rent to Own

Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ July 16, 2024 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A24D0405. EDWARD T. RIDLEY v. ARRONS RENT TO OWN et al.

Prisoner Edward T. Ridley seeks discretionary review of the trial court’s order granting Aaron’s, LLC’s1 motion to dismiss the action Ridley filed against it.2 The order, however, does not dispose of claims against any of the other named defendants, and there is no other indication that this is a final order. Thus, we lack jurisdiction.

In a case involving multiple parties, a decision adjudicating the rights and liabilities of fewer than all the parties is not a final judgment. Johnson v. Hosp. Corp. of America, 192 Ga. App. 628, 629 (385 SE2d 731) (1989). Thus, Ridley’s failure to use the interlocutory appeal procedures, including obtaining a certificate of immediate review from the trial court, deprives us of jurisdiction over this application, which is

Aaron’s, LLC is sometimes referred to as Arrons Rent to Own in the application materials.

Ridley has filed over 32 appeals and applications in this Court---both criminal and civil. hereby DISMISSED. See OCGA § 5-6-34 (b); Boyd v. State, 191 Ga. App. 435, 435 (383 SE2d 906) (1989).
