Georgia Court of Appeals

Paris Bennett-Stroud v. Ashley Tatum

A27D0040 August 26, 2026 Discretionary Application Granted

Automated case summary

What the court decided

The legal issue involved whether a protective order was subject to discretionary review based on its nature, as Ashley Tatum sought an order against Paris Bennett-Stroud following a petition filed by Tatum. The Georgia Court of Appeals held that the order did not appear to arise from a domestic relations matter and therefore is directly appealable, resulting in the application being GRANTED.
