Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,__________________ January 09, 2014 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A14D0172. SHON D. BEARUP v. LISA M. MILLS.

Lisa Mills filed a petition against her ex-husband, Shon Bearup, to modify the child support provisions of their divorce decree. The superior court entered an order granting the petition, and Bearup filed this application for discretionary review.

The issues in this case arise out of the child support provisions of a divorce decree. Although the Court of Appeals may review cases relating solely to child custody, the Supreme Court has appellate jurisdiction over “[a]ll divorce and alimony cases.” Ga. Const. of 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (6). In Georgia, child support is a form of alimony. Appellate jurisdiction over actions to modify a divorce decree’s child support provisions, therefore, lies in the Supreme Court. See Spurlock v. Dept. of Human Resources, 286 Ga. 512, 513 (1) (690 SE2d 378) (2010). Accordingly, this application is hereby TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court.
