Georgia Court of Appeals

In Re: Kenneth B. Patton, Deceased

A26A1767 May 5, 2026 Dismissed

Automated case summary

What the court decided

Chakina Patton filed a petition to determine heirs in an estate administration action, claiming she is the sole heir to her father Kenneth Patton's estate, but the probate court deferred ruling on several issues pending other proceedings. The Court of Appeals lacks jurisdiction over Chakina's appeal because the order from which she appeals was not final, and she failed to comply with interlocutory appeal procedures.
