The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A20A1739. TYREEK THOMAS v. THE STATE.

      Tyreek Thomas was sentenced as a first offender. Following a hearing, the trial
court revoked Thomas’s first offender status and entered a sentencing judgment.
Thomas then filed this appeal. We, however, lack jurisdiction.
      Contrary to his assertion in his notice of appeal, Thomas was required to file
an application for discretionary appeal to obtain review in this Court because the
underlying subject matter of Thomas’s appeal is the revocation of his first offender
probation. Dean v. State, 177 Ga. App. 123, (338 SE2d 711) (1985) (OCGA § 5-6-35
(a) (5) applies to revocation of first offender status). His failure to do so deprives us
of jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
