342 S.E.2d 7 (Ga. Ct. App. 1986)

Opinion

72156, 72157.

DECIDED FEBRUARY 12, 1986. REHEARING DENIED FEBRUARY 25, 1986.

Action on policy. Sumter Superior Court. Before Judge Gibson.

Kenneth M. Henson, Jr., Millard D. Fuller, for appellants.

Kenneth B. Hodges, Jr., William A. Erwin, for appellee.

W. C. Brooks, Stanley T. Snellings, amici curiae.


Plaintiffs below, Shirley Colwell and Elizabeth Wilkerson, bring these appeals from the trial court's denial of their motions, as amended, to add the Georgia Insurer's Insolvency Pool as a party defendant in their action against Voyager Casualty Insurance Company. These rulings were on interlocutory motions, the actions remain pending, and the orders appealed from are not final judgments. Smith v. Winer, 219 Ga. 738 ( 135 S.E.2d 892); Guthrie v. Monumental Properties, 141 Ga. App. 25 ( 232 S.E.2d 372); White v. Wright, 124 Ga. App. 151 ( 183 S.E.2d 90).

The interlocutory appeal procedure specified by OCGA § 5-6-34 for appeals from non-final judgments, has not been followed and these appeals must be dismissed. Guthrie, supra.

Appeals dismissed. Banke, C. J., and Sognier, J., concur.

DECIDED FEBRUARY 12, 1986 — REHEARING DENIED FEBRUARY 25, 1986 — CERT. APPLIED FOR.
