Economy Properties, LLC v. Tamela L. McRae D/B/A Mazel's Restaurants, LLC ( 2017 )

Court of Appeals
of the State of Georgia
ATLANTA,____________________
January 26, 2017
The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:
A17A0983. ECONOMY PROPERTIES, LLC v. TAMELA L. MCRAE d/b/a
MAZEL’S RESTAURANTS, LLC.
Tamela L. McRae, doing business as Mazel’s Restaurants, LLC, sued Economy
Properties, LLC, for unrefunded rent, CAM charges, and a security deposit after the
premises she rented was totally destroyed by a fire. The trial court entered judgment
in favor of McRae in the amount of $6,350, plus costs of court. Economy Properties
then filed this direct appeal. We, however, 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). Because
Economy Properties failed to follow the required appellate procedure, this appeal is
hereby DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.
