Georgia Court of Appeals

Ericka Lipscomb v. Kenneth Davis

A15A1986 March 1, 2016 Affirmed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue is whether a plaintiff must demonstrate the greatest possible diligence when attempting to serve a defendant after the statute of limitations has expired. The Georgia Court of Appeals affirmed the trial court's finding that the plaintiff lacked this required diligence because she made only one final attempt to serve the defendant.
