Shenada Henderson v. Orchard Walk LP d/b/a Orchard Walk

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue involved whether an application for discretionary review of a magistrate court's dispossessory order was timely filed, as appellate jurisdiction is limited by statutory timeframes. The Georgia Court of Appeals held that because the application was filed outside the required seven-day window following the judgment entry, the action is DISMISSED.
