Elgin v. Swann
Court of Appeals of Georgia
1Opinion of the Court
McFadden, Judge.
Jennifer Elgin appeals from a six-month stalking protective order entered against her pursuant to OCGA § 16-5-94 (d). We find that, although the protective order has expired, the issues raised in this appeal are not moot, the trial court employed the proper standard in evaluating the evidence, and it did not abuse its discretion in issuing the protective order. See Pilcher v. Stribling, 282 Ga. 166, 167 (647 SE2d 8) (2007) (grant or denial of motion for protective order is reviewed for abuse of discretion). Accordingly, we affirm.
Construed in favor of the judgment, see Garnsey…
