Court of Appeals
of the State of Georgia

                                          ATLANTA,____________________
                                                   December 28, 2023

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A24A0346. BOYD et al. v. FRONTIER ADJUSTERS, INC. et al.

       The appellants have moved to remand this appeal to the trial court for the
purpose of completing or correcting the record. They assert that the record
transmitted on appeal is either incomplete or erroneous. They further assert that they
have spoken with an employee of the trial court clerk’s office but have not yet been
able to resolve the matter. The appellees oppose this motion, arguing that to the extent
the appellate record contains errors, they are not material to the issues on appeal.
From the filings before us, it is not clear to us the extent of the alleged errors and their
materiality to this appeal.

       OCGA § 5-6-41 (f) provides a means by which the trial court may resolve
contentions that the “record does not truly or fully disclose what transpired in the trial
court. . . .” We hereby GRANT the appellants’ motion and REMAND this case to the
trial court for that court to consider the appellants’ contentions regarding the
completeness and correctness of the record. Upon entry of an order on that issue and,
if necessary, supplementation of the record, the trial court clerk is DIRECTED to re-
transmit the appeal to this court for re-docketing. The appellants need not file a new
notice of appeal.
