Case Summary

This appeal arose from a land dispute involving property owners, alleged trespass, punitive damages, and counterclaims. The Court of Appeals of Georgia affirmed some trial-court rulings but reversed the dismissal of the appellants’ punitive-damages claim and the order permitting counterclaims against one appellant. The court held that the pleadings and record did not support those rulings as entered. It remanded for further proceedings while leaving the remaining affirmed portions of the case intact.
