      Cynthia Lain has filed an emergency motion seeking a writ of supersedeas

ordering her jailed for an unspecified period of time. Lain filed notices of appeal and
motions for supersedeas under OCGA § 5-6-13 (a), but the trial court did not grant
the motions for supersedeas.

motion for supersedeas is GRANTED pending disposition of her appeal.
