The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15A0383. ANTHONY K. REESE v. R. H. TIPPINS, EVANS COUNTY
    SHERIFF.

      On August 1, 2014, the trial court granted Sheriff R. H. Tippins’s motion to
dismiss the petition for mandamus filed by Anthony K. Reese. Reese filed this
appeal. The Supreme Court, however, has exclusive appellate jurisdiction over all
cases involving extraordinary remedies, including mandamus. See Ga. Const. of
1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (5); Ladzinske v. Allen, 280 Ga. 264 (626 SE2d 83)
(2006). Accordingly, this case is hereby TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court for
disposition.
