On Motion for Rehearing.
Griffith asserts in his motion for rehearing that the case is no longer pending in the court below “because it was automatically dismissed without prejudice after the costs were not paid within twenty days.” See Uniform Transfer Rule T-11, 251 Ga. 893, 894 (1984). Thus, he argues, this appeal is from a final judgment as in the cases of Shannon v. Allen Automatic Transmission, supra, and Long v. Bruner, supra. However, there is nothing in the record on appeal showing that this case has, in fact, been dismissed in the court below. *534“ ‘This court is a court for the correction of errors and its decision must be made on the record sent to this court by the clerk of the court below and not upon the briefs of counsel. [Cits.]’ ” Tingle v. Arnold, Cate & Allen, 129 Ga. App. 134, 139 (199 SE2d 260) (1973) (on motion for rehearing). Accordingly, we adhere to our judgment dismissing this appeal for Griffith’s failure to comply with the interlocutory appeal procedure of OCGA § 5-6-34 (b).
