Opinion
37415.
DECIDED APRIL 8, 1981.
Alimony. Muscogee Superior Court. Before Judge Followill.
J. Willard Register, Carl M. Werling, Jr., for appellant.
Grogan, Jones, Layfield, Agnew Rumer, Lee R. Grogan, for appellee.
By decree dated November 10, 1966, the court ordered the former husband to pay $250 per month alimony pursuant to agreement of the parties. In July 1980 the former husband filed a petition for writ of error coram nobis challenging the validity of the decree incorporating the agreement on the basis of Orr v. Orr, 440 U.S. 268 ( 99 S.C. 1102, 59 L.Ed.2d 306) (1979).
The trial court granted the former wife's motion to dismiss. See Kosikowski v. Kosikowski, 243 Ga. 413 (3) ( 254 S.E.2d 363) (1979); Kirkpatrick v. Woodruff, 243 Ga. 736 ( 256 S.E.2d 465) (1979); Knox v. Knox, 243 Ga. 797 ( 256 S.E.2d 777) (1979); Shepherd v. Shepherd, 244 Ga. 545 (1) (2) ( 261 S.E.2d 339) (1979). The former husband filed notice of appeal.
The former writ of error coram nobis has been superseded in this state by the extraordinary motion for new trial. Waye v. State, 239 Ga. 871, 873 ( 238 S.E.2d 923) (1977). Whether treated as a writ of error coram nobis, an extraordinary motion for new trial (Code Ann. § 70-204), a motion to set aside a judgment (Code Ann. § 81A-160 (d)), or a complaint in equity to set aside a judgment (Code Ann. § 81A-160(e)), this appeal is dismissed for failure to follow the application procedures set forth in Code Ann. § 6-701.1 Chandler v. Cochran, 247 Ga. 171 ( 275 S.E.2d 657) (1981); Hanes v. Hanes, 247 Ga. 305 ( 276 S.E.2d 4) (1981).
Appeal dismissed. All the Justices concur.
