Georgia Supreme Court expands jurisdiction and adds justices for improved efficiency.
The Act HB 927 aims to improve the efficiency of the Georgia Court of Appeals and Supreme Court by expanding the Court of Appeals' jurisdiction and increasing the number of Supreme Court Justices. This change is intended to ease the workload of the Supreme Court, which previously had exclusive jurisdiction over certain cases. The Act now allows the Court of Appeals to hear appeals on cases involving title to land, wills, and divorce.
