Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ April 11, 2016 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A16D0304. TREVOR MCGILL v. CAMIELLE BORUCKI.

Trevor McGill filed this application for discretionary appeal from the trial court’s order denying his motion to change the last name of the parties’ minor child.

The order was entered in a pending divorce case.1 We, however, lack jurisdiction.

The divorce case remains pending below as no final decree has been entered.

Therefore, the order that McGill wishes to appeal is interlocutory in nature. See Scruggs v. Ga. Dept. of Human Resources, 261 Ga. 587, 589 (1) (408 SE2d 103) (1991). A party seeking appellate review from an interlocutory order must follow the interlocutory application procedure set forth in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), which includes obtaining a certificate of immediate review from the trial court and filing within ten days of the order. See Bailey v. Bailey, 266 Ga. 832, 833 (471 SE2d 213) (1996).

OCGA § 5-6-35, which governs the discretionary appeal procedure, does not excuse a party seeking appellate review of an interlocutory order from complying with the additional requirements of OCGA § 5-6- 34 (b). See Bailey, supra. McGill’s failure to follow the interlocutory appeal procedure deprives us of jurisdiction over this application, which is therefore DISMISSED.

McGill filed his application in the Supreme Court of Georgia, which transferred it to this Court.
