The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15A1896. ABRAHAM ISAAC COHEN v. DESTINY MEDICAL SERVICES,
    INC.

      Destiny Medical Services, Inc. sued Abraham Isaac Cohen in magistrate court
and won a judgment for $1,500.00, plus costs. Cohen appealed to the state court,
which entered judgment for Destiny in the amount of $15,000.00, plus interest and
costs. Cohen filed a motion for new trial, which the state court denied. Cohen then
appealed directly to this Court. Because the order at issue disposes of a de novo
appeal from a magistrate court decision, Cohen was required to follow the
discretionary appeal procedures to obtain review before this Court. See OCGA § 5-6-
35 (a) (11); Strachan v. Meritor Mortgage Corp. East, 216 Ga. App. 82 (453 SE2d
119) (1995). His failure to do so deprives us of jurisdiction over this appeal, which
is hereby DISMISSED.
