About the publication

A starting point for Georgia appellate research

Georgia Appeals Digest is an independent informational publication. Find a case, follow its official sources, and keep up with covered civil appellate decisions.

Start with the official source

Each case page identifies the court and docket and links to the official opinion or order and court record. The summary is an automated research aid. It is not the court's opinion, legal advice, or a statement that a decision remains good law.

Summaries are generated automatically and are not individually reviewed before publication. They may contain errors or omit important context. Read the official documents and check later history before relying on a decision.

What the library covers

The public case library contains summaries of covered Georgia Court of Appeals civil decisions. It is a selection, not a complete court docket or a comprehensive legal research service. A missing case does not mean no decision exists. The date shown with a case describes the court record, not when the summary was published or reviewed.

Browse the case library or explore the weekly archives. Both remain free. Published case updates are also available through the RSS feed.

Referencing a summary

When sharing a digest summary, include its case-page link and docket number and identify Georgia Appeals Digest as the source of the automated summary. For the court's reasoning and disposition, use the linked official opinion or order. Do not describe an automated summary as a court-authored or individually reviewed analysis.

Keep up with the next decisions

The daily email brings covered Georgia civil appellate decisions together in one court-business-day edition, with automated summaries, docket details, dispositions, and official-source links. The subscription is $5/month or $39/year.
