Case Summary

Seth Watson sued David Samdperil and Track Seven Events for money allegedly owed under a promissory note connected to Watson’s sale of his membership interest in the company. The trial court granted Watson summary judgment. The Court of Appeals of Georgia affirmed Samdperil’s liability under the note but vacated the damages award because the appellate record did not show that the trial court had properly calculated the amount owed, including a payment Watson acknowledged receiving. The court remanded for recalculation of damages and denied Watson’s request for sanctions, explaining that the appeal was not frivolous after the damages ruling was vacated.
