Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue is whether a direct appeal from a divorce judgment is proper when a discretionary application is required under Georgia law. The Georgia Court of Appeals held that because a divorce case with child custody issues is not a child custody case, the direct appeal was without jurisdiction and is DISMISSED.
