The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15A2114. KELVIN AKWANZA SPOONER v. WELLS FARGO BANK, N. A.

      This case began as a dispossessory proceeding in magistrate court. Following
an adverse ruling, defendants Kelvin and Melissa Spooner appealed to the superior
court, which likewise ruled against them. Kelvin Spooner then filed a notice of appeal
to this Court. “[A]ppeals from decisions of the superior courts reviewing decisions
of lower courts by certiorari or de novo proceedings shall be by application for
discretionary appeal.” Bullock v. Sand, 260 Ga. App. 874, 875 (581 SE2d 333)
(2003); see also OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1). Because Spooner did not follow the proper
procedure for requesting appellate review in this case, we lack jurisdiction over this
direct appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.1
