Blackburn, Judge,
concurring specially.
I agree with the judgment of the majority opinion and with its analysis. I write specially to stress that this case is remanded for the trial court’s consideration of whether or not to grant Piggly Wiggly’s motion to set aside the judgment brought within the same term of court in which the judgment was rendered under the court’s inherent powers. As the trial court appears to have limited its authority by the requirements of OCGA § 9-11-60 (d), the case should be remanded so that it might exercise its discretion unfettered by such limitation. *338Nothing in this concurrence should be construed as a comment upon the merits of Piggly Wiggly’s motion.
Decided February 16, 1995.
Alston & Bird, G. Conley Ingram, William T. Plybon, Martin, Snow, Grant & Napier, John C. Edwards, Jay C. Traynham, Hodges, Erwin, Hedrick & Kraselsky, Kenneth B. Hodges, Jr., for appellant.
Morris, Webster & Corless, F. Leonard Morris, Jr., Craig A. Webster, for appellees.
