Parties to appeal.

- Although only one of the coparties appeals, all of the coparties who have the same interests and rights are also a party to the appeal. Hunt v. Henderson, 178 Ga. App. 688, 344 S.E.2d 470 (1986).

Right of all parties to prosecute or defend.

- All parties who are brought up on appeal, whether they have filed an appeal or not have the right to appear and prosecute or defend, whichever the case may be. Hunt v. Henderson, 178 Ga. App. 688, 344 S.E.2d 470 (1986).

Section inapplicable to certiorari cases, but applies to appeals only. Winn v. Ingram, 3 Ga. App. 628, 60 S.E. 328 (1908).

Defendant cannot enter appeal from only part of judgment. Bryson v. Scott, 111 Ga. 196, 36 S.E. 619 (1900).

Where nonappealing defendant dies between first and second trial.
