Georgia Court of Appeals

Art D. Conner, et al.. v. Oconee Federal Savings & Loan Association

A16A1472 September 15, 2016 Reversed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue was whether the trial court erred by denying a motion to dismiss based on insufficient service of process before ordering a hearing. The Georgia Court of Appeals reversed, holding that personal jurisdiction requires proper service of process, and the superior court lacked jurisdiction without such service.
