On Motion for Rehearing.
On motion for rehearing, appellants challenge our reliance on MTW Invest. Co. v. Vanguard Prop. Fin. Corp., 179 Ga. App. 403 (346 SE2d 575) (1986), contending that the ruling in that case is not controlling because there the order appealed from involved only an award of attorney fees, whereas here the order at issue included a directive that books and records be surrendered to appellee. We disagree, as our review of the record filed in MTW Invest. Co. discloses that the appellant appealed from both the judgment awarding attorney fees and also a previous order compelling production of certain documents and records. Further, contrary to appellants’ argument, we find no inconsistency between the instant ruling based on MTW Invest. Co. and the holding in Brown v. Assoc. Fin. &c. Corp., 255 Ga. 457 (339 SE2d 590) (1986).

The motion for rehearing is denied.
