City of Waycross, 300 Ga. at 110-11 (1), 793 S.E.2d 389 (citations omitted). Presnell's execution was delay[ed] as a result of the interlocutory injunction in part because the trial court weighed the factor concerning the threat of irreparable injury to the moving party in favor of granting injunctive relief based in some measure on its determination that, without the granting of such relief, Presnell would be executed as scheduled and, as a result, would suffer grave and irreparable injury in that he would forever lose his ability to protect his rights as a third-party beneficiary under the Agreement. In response, Sub-Committee members asked that, instead of pursuing legislation, Arceneaux and Graham work together to reach an agreement regarding the orderly management of the cases of execution-eligible inmates. It is introspective, retrospective and prospective. (iii) In the last of the three additional arguments, the State argues that, before the interlocutory injunction issued, district attorneys were authorized to seek execution orders for execution-eligible death row inmates and the DOC was authorized to effectuate such orders.

Finding that this public interest is implicated even more when the State is a party to the contract, because if [the State] cannot be trusted to honor [its] agreements in these circumstances, it will substantially undermine the public's confidence in its government, the trial court then concluded that granting an interlocutory injunction would not disserve the public interest.

The Appellees contend that the State waived this argument by not raising it in the trial court. Furthermore, whatever the availability of a COVID-19 vaccine in the Winter of 2020, that level of availability could not have been what the parties intended as satisfying the third condition of the Agreement, given the fact that the parties entered the Agreement on April 14, 2021, well over three months after that level of availability had already been attained.

Here, the primary issue on appeal is the trial court's decision regarding the Appellees request for an interlocutory injunction. Jurisdiction is properly in this Court under OCGA 15-3-3.1 (a) (2) because equitable principles were at the core of the trial court's determination as to whether to grant the Appellees motion for an interlocutory injunction, that interlocutory injunction is the primary issue on appeal, and the appeal concerns a case in which a death sentence was imposed and the execution of a death sentence.7 See WXIA-TV v.

However, we reject the contention that the resumption of modified or restricted visitation on April 7, 2021, was what the parties intended regarding the second condition of the Agreement, given the fact that the parties entered the Agreement a week after the DOC initiated this visitation policy.

In response, on May 9, 2022, the Federal Defender filed on its own behalf a complaint against the State alleging a breach of the Agreement and seeking a temporary restraining order and an interlocutory injunction in order to halt Presnell's scheduled execution and to foreclose the scheduling of executions for the other inmates covered by the Agreement. The State argues that the Agreement is vague because it does not provide a specific termination date and that, therefore, if the conditions are never met, then the [Agreement] could conceivably enjoin executions in Georgia forever.17 It is true that indefiniteness in subject matter so extreme as not to present anything upon which the contract may operate in a definite manner renders the contract void.
