Applicants Kevin Davis and Krystal Bunn, as legal guardians and next of kin of

The grant of summary judgment on any issue may be appealed directly and

if the order complained of is subject to direct appeal and the applicants have not
otherwise filed a notice of appeal.” Spivey v. Hembree, 268 Ga. App. 485, 486 n. 1 (602
SE2d 246) (2004). Accordingly, this interlocutory application is hereby GRANTED.
Applicants shall have ten days from the date of this order to file a notice of appeal in
the trial court. If a notice of appeal has already been filed, a second notice is not
required. The clerk of the trial court is DIRECTED to include a copy of this order in
