The lawyers and judges who have contributed to updated editions ofthe Handbook during the intervening decades are too numerous to name, but we remain thankful for their contributions, leadership, and guidance in connection with this work.  \nFor this Seventh Edition, we are particularly grateful to Justice David E. Nahmias of the Supreme Court and Judge Christopher J. McFadden of the Court of Appeals, each of whom authored chapters for this edition of the Handbook. Their comments and insights will undoubtedly be of great interest to all appellate practitioners in Georgia. We are also deeply appreciative of the time and effort spent by Therese “Tee” Barnes, Clerk of the Supreme Court, and Holly K.O. Sparrow, Clerk of the Court of Appeals, in reviewing and commenting on relevant portions ofthis edition.  \nThe names ofthe Alston & Bird lawyers who contributed to this edition are found on the preceding page. We thank each of them for their outstanding effort to make the Seventh Edition of the Handbook both user-friendly and accurate.  \nWe hope that the Handbook will continue to be a valuable resource for all who practice in the Georgia appellate courts.  \nDaniel F.
