Court of Appeals

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A17A1872. SANDRA GISTARB v. JEFF 1 LLC.

      This case began as a dispossessory proceeding in magistrate court. Following
an adverse ruling in that court, defendant Sandra Gistarb appealed to the superior
court. The superior court also ruled in favor of the plaintiff, and Gistarb filed this
direct appeal from the superior court’s order. We lack jurisdiction.
      Because the superior court’s order disposed of a de novo appeal from a
magistrate court decision, Gistarb was required to follow the discretionary appeal
procedure. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1); English v. Delbridge, 216 Ga. App. 366, 367
(454 SE2d 175) (1995). Gistarb’s failure to follow this procedure deprives us of
jurisdiction to consider this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
