                                                August 30, 2018

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A19A0130. SAMUEL LEE GHEE v. STATE OF GEORGIA.

      Samuel Lee Ghee filed suit against the State of Georgia and Georgia State
University campus police officers alleging multiple claims. Ghee filed a motion for
default judgment and a motion to strike hearsay statements. The trial court denied the
motions, and Ghee filed this appeal.1 The State of Georgia has filed a motion to
dismiss the appeal.
      Because the case remains pending in the trial court, Ghee was required to
comply with interlocutory appeal procedures in order to appeal. See OCGA § 5-6-34
(b); Boyd v. State, 191 Ga. App. 435, 435 (383 SE2d 906) (1989). Ghee’s failure to
follow the requisite procedure deprives us of jurisdiction. See Eidson v. Croutch, 337
Ga. App. 542, 543 (788 SE2d 129) (2016). Accordingly, the motion to dismiss is
hereby GRANTED, and this appeal is DISMISSED.
