STRACHAN v. MERITOR MORTGAGE CORPORATION EAST.
(453 SE2d 119)
Decided January 13, 1995.
Joyce S. Strachan, pro se.
Richard H. Johnston & Associates, Gregory M. Brown, for appellee.

Opinion:
McMurray, Presiding Judge.
This direct appeal followed a de novo ruling by the State Court of Fulton County from a decision of the magistrate court on a dispossessory petition. Appeals from such decisions must be made via the discretionary application procedure of OCGA § 5-6-35 (b). OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (11); Handler v. Hulsey, 199 Ga. App. 751 (406 SE2d 225). Consequently, this direct appeal must be dismissed for failure to follow this procedure.
Appeal dismissed.
Andrews and Blackburn, JJ., concur.
