Court of Appeals
of the State of Georgia

                                      ATLANTA,____________________
                                               November 26, 2019

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A20A0677. WANDA F. PRENTICE v. DEKALB COUNTY SCHOOL
    DISTRICT.

      In this direct appeal, Wanda F. Prentice seeks review of the superior court’s
order affirming a decision of the State Board of Workers’ Compensation. However,
an appeal from a decision of the superior court reviewing a decision of the State
Board of Workers’ Compensation must be brought by application for discretionary
appeal. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1); Adivari v. Sears, Roebuck & Co., 221 Ga. App.
279 (471 SE2d 59) (1996). Because Prentice failed to follow the proper appellate
procedure, her appeal is hereby DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction. See Adivari.
