Opinion

A95A0594.

DECIDED JANUARY 13, 1995.

Dispossessory. Fulton State Court. Before Judge Shoob.

Joyce S. Strachan, pro se. Richard H. Johnston Associates, Gregory M. Brown, for appellee.

McMURRAY, Presiding Judge.

This direct appeal followed a de novo ruling by the State Court of Fulton County from a decision of the magistrate court on a dispossessory petition. Appeals from such decisions must be made via the discretionary application procedure of OCGA § 5-6-35 (b). OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (11); Handler v. Hulsey, 199 Ga. App. 751 ( 406 S.E.2d 225). Consequently, this direct appeal must be dismissed for failure to follow this procedure.

Appeal dismissed. Andrews and Blackburn, JJ., concur.

DECIDED JANUARY 13, 1995.
