Georgia Court of Appeals
Damon Zeigler v. Cynthia Demetria Zeigler et al..
A20A0399
June 3, 2020
Vacated & Remanded With Direction
Automated case summary
What the court decided
The legal issue is whether a prisoner can be compelled to appear in court for a civil matter when requested as a witness. The Georgia Court of Appeals vacated the trial court's order denying transportation because it lacked authority to compel attendance without considering financial ability or necessity by the ends of justice, and remanded the case for further proceedings.
