“Although the grant of a motion for summary judgment is in general directly appealable, where the amount of the judgment is $10,000 or less, an application for discretionary appeal is required.” Ca-Shar v. McKesson Corp., 204 Ga. App. 865, 865 (420 SE2d 810) (1992) (citation and punctuation omitted); see also OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (6). As the specific amounts set forth in the judgment in favor of Lakemore Colony Condominium Association total less than $10,000, the entry of summary judgment provides no basis for a direct appeal, see Ca-Shar, 204 Ga.

Crolley v. Johnson · filed 1988-01-06(a)(8)
Assuming without deciding that, by analogy to a motion for new trial, the filing of a motion to set aside, although premature, is nevertheless sufficient to invoke a ruling by the trial court thereon subsequent to its entry of the underlying judgment, the trial court’s denial of appellants’ prematurely filed motion to set aside, as subsequently amended, would not be directly appealable. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (8).

If the damages in this contract action are unliquidated, Nova would have been entitled to an evidentiary hearing on the issue of damages under OCGA § 9-11-55 (a).
