Opinion
50476.
SUBMITTED APRIL 9, 1975.
DECIDED APRIL 29, 1975.
Action for damages. Fulton Superior Court. Before Judge Williams.
Drew Jones, Don M. Jones, for appellants.
Gambrell, Russell, Killorin, Wade Forbes, David A. Handley, Jack O. Morse, for appellees.
The plaintiffs sued Westview Cemetery, Inc. and others for trespass. Motions of the defendants to dismiss the complaints were sustained on August 26, 1975. Plaintiffs moved to set aside the order of August 26, and this motion was denied on October 29, 1974. A notice of appeal to the Supreme Court was filed on November 27, and the appeal was thereafter transferred by that court to the Court of Appeals.
The appeal from the judgment of dismissal comes too late, having been filed more than 30 days from the entry of the judgment. The denial of the motion to set aside the dismissal is neither a final judgment from which appeal may be had nor can it toll the time for appeal from the judgment of dismissal. Lynn v. Wagstaff Motor Co., 131 Ga. App. 556 ( 206 S.E.2d 539); Taylor v. City of Columbus, 228 Ga. 493 ( 186 S.E.2d 539); Adamson v. Adamson, 226 Ga. 719 ( 177 S.E.2d 241). The appeal must accordingly be dismissed.
Appeal dismissed. Evans and Stolz, JJ., concur.
