The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A20A0117. W. A. GRIFFIN v. MINNIE P. MATTHEWS.

      W. A. Griffin filed a direct appeal from a trial court order denying his motion
for summary judgment. However, the denial of a motion for summary judgment must
be appealed in accordance with the interlocutory appeal procedures set forth in
OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), which include obtaining a certificate of immediate review. See
OCGA § 9-11-56 (h); Pace Constr. Corp. v. Northpark Assocs., 215 Ga. App. 438,
439 (450 SE2d 828) (1994). Because Griffin failed to comply with the requisite
interlocutory procedures, this application is premature and is hereby DISMISSED.
