• “[C]hanges in statutory language generally 22 indicate an intent to change the meaning of the statute.” (citation and punctuation omitted)
• “if an appellate court determines that an appeal was not authorized because the decision at issue was interlocutory rather than final, . . . then supersedeas never attached”
• “We again conclude that an order modifying an interlocutory injunction is not directly appealable under OCGA § 5-6-34 (a) (4).”
• “the appellate court is the sole authority in determining whether a filed notice of appeal . . . is sufficient to invoke its jurisdiction”
