Georgia Appeals Court Revives Tenant’s Case After E-filing Glitch Dispute

The Georgia Court of Appeals has resurrected a tenant’s appeal in an eviction case, determining that the trial court erred in dismissing the case. The central issue concerned a delay attributed to the court’s electronic filing system. The trial court had not sufficiently elucidated how this delay failed to preserve the tenant’s appeal, leading to its dismissal.
