Opinion:
Deen, Presiding Judge.
OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1) specifically exempts decisions from the probate court from the requirement of filing discretionary appeals. Such appeals are required to be filed directly with this court. Copeland v. White, 178 Ga. App. 644 (344 SE2d 436) (1986). The grant of these discretionary appeals must therefore be dismissed.
Appeals dismissed.
Benham and Beasley, JJ., concur.
