This appeal arises out of a complaint filed by Blackwell against Sutton for ejectment. Sutton filed a motion to dismiss, which the trial court treated as a motion for summary judgment, and granted. Blackwell filed a motion for new trial, which the trial court properly treated as a motion for reconsideration, 1 and denied. Blackwell appeals, contending the grant of summary judgment was improper. A motion for reconsideration, unlike those for new trial, in arrest of judgment, and for judgment notwithstanding the verdict, does not toll the 30-day period for filing a notice of appeal. Adamson v. Adamson, 226 Ga. 719 (177 SE2d 241) (1970). Accordingly, Blackwell's notice of appeal, filed more than 30 days after the trial court's grant of summary judgment to Sutton, was untimely, and his appeal is dismissed. See also Mathis v. Hegwood, 169 Ga. App 547 (314 SE2d 122) (1984).
