The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15D0006. SATPAL SHIKH v. VIJAY K. VIG.

      Satpal Shikh and Vijay Vig were divorced in 2011. Vig subsequently filed a
motion for contempt, alleging Shikh had failed to pay sums ordered for alimony and
equitable division of property in the divorce decree. The trial court found Shikh in
contempt and ordered her to pay $94,228.50. Shikh filed an application for
discretionary appeal from this order.
      Under the Georgia Constitution of 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (6), the
Supreme Court has appellate jurisdiction over “[a]ll divorce and alimony cases.”
“[A]n appeal from the judgment in a contempt action seeking to enforce any portion
of [a] divorce decree other than child custody is ancillary to divorce and alimony and
falls within [the Supreme] Court’s jurisdiction over ‘divorce and alimony cases.’
[Cits.]” Rogers v. McGahee, 278 Ga. 287, 288 (1) (602 SE2d 582) (2004); see also
Morris v. Morris, 284 Ga. 748, 750 (2) (670 SE2d 84) (2008). Because this
application appears to fall within the Supreme Court’s jurisdiction, it is hereby
TRANSFERRED to that Court.
