Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,__________________ August 28, 2014 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A14A1919. EUNICE CLEMENT v. NATIONAL CITY REAL ESTATE SERVICE.

This case commenced as a dispossessory matter in state court. The plaintiff, National City Real Estate, filed a motion to draw down funds paid into the registry of the court, which the trial court granted on April 4, 2014. Defendant Eunice Clement filed a “Motion to Reject Order Granting Plaintiff’s Motion to Draw Down Funds,” which the trial court dismissed. Clement then filed this direct appeal. We lack jurisdiction.

The record shows that, when the court ruled on Clement’s motion, the dispossessory matter remained pending in the trial court.1 Because the trial court’s order was not final, Clement was required to comply with the interlocutory appeal procedures of OCGA § 5-6-34 (b) in order to obtain appellate review of this order.

See Pace Constr. Corp. v. Northpark Assoc.,215 Ga. App. 438, 439 (450 SE2d 828) (1994). For this reason, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.

The trial court issued a writ of possession on May 12, 2014.
