Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,_________________ June 15, 2012

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A12A2018. KAISER FORD v. RUBY LEE GLOSTER.

Ruby Lee Gloster filed suit against Kaiser Ford, both individually and as agent for a trust, seeking to set aside two deeds that conveyed land to the trust. The trial court granted Gloster’s motion for summary judgment, and set aside the deeds. Ford then filed this direct appeal. “Cases respecting title to land, as that term is used in the Constitution for the purpose of defining the jurisdiction of [the Supreme Court], refer to and mean actions at law, such as ejectment and statutory substitutes, in which the plaintiff asserts a presently enforceable legal title against the possession of the defendant for the purpose of recovering the land.” Bond v. Ray, 207 Ga. 559, 562 (63 SE2d 399) (1951) (punctuation omitted); see also Cole v. Cole, 205 Ga. App. 332 (1) (422 SE2d 230) (1992). Because this appears to be such a case, this appeal is hereby TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court for disposition. See Ga. Const. of 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (1) and (2); Tharp v. Harpagon Co., 278 Ga. 654, 655 (1) (604 SE2d 156) (2004).
