Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ March 29, 2022 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A22A1180. RAYSHUN DORSEY v. SUNSHINE MANAGEMENT, LLC.

In this dispossessory action, the magistrate court entered judgment in favor of the plaintiff Sunshine Management, LLC, and the defendant Rayshun Dorsey appealed to the superior court. The superior court also entered judgment in favor of the plaintiff, and the defendant filed this direct appeal. We lack jurisdiction. “[A]ppeals from decisions of the superior courts reviewing decisions of lower courts by certiorari or de novo proceedings shall be by application for discretionary appeal.” Bullock v. Sand, 260 Ga. App. 874, 875 (581 SE2d 333) (2003) (punctuation omitted); see also OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1). Because the defendant did not follow the proper procedure for requesting appellate review in this case, we lack jurisdiction, and this appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
