BRANAN & SCHMITZ REALTY, INC.
v.
ELLIS.

49740.

Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Submitted October 7, 1974. Decided November 6, 1974.

Moffett, Henderson, Jones & Barnwell, Taylor W. Jones, Walter N. Adams, for appellant.

Davis, Matthews & Quigley, L. Brown Bivens, for appellee.

QUILLIAN, Judge.

Where as in the case sub judice the defendant's counterclaim is still pending in the trial court, an appeal complaining of the granting of a judgment on the pleadings for the defendant in the main complaint is not a final judgment. Without a proper certificate from the trial judge, the appeal is therefore premature. Brown v. Elliott, 115 Ga. App. 89" court="Ga. Ct.
