Recheck Funding, LLC v. Keith Lasseter

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ December 06, 2017 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A18A0787. RECHECK FUNDING, LLC v. KEITH LASSETER. In this civil action, defendant Recheck Funding, LLC (“Recheck”) appeals the trial court’s order denying its motion for a new trial, following a judgment in favor of the plaintiff in the amount of $8,926.00. We lack jurisdiction. Appeals in actions for damages in which the judgment is $10,000.00 or less must be initiated by filing an application for discretionary review. OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (6), (b); Jennings v. Moss, 235 Ga. App. 357 (509 SE2d 655) (1998). Recheck’s failure to follow the required appellate procedure deprives us of jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED. Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia Clerk’s Office, Atlanta,____________________ 12/06/2017 I certify that the above is a true extract from the minutes of the Court of Appeals of Georgia. Witness my signature and the seal of said court hereto affixed the day and year last above written. , Clerk.
