Angela Reddish v. US Bank National Association

Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,_________________ May 23, 2012

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A12A1739. ANGELA REDDISH, ET AL. v. US BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION.

This case originated as a dispossessory proceeding in magistrate court. Following an adverse ruling, Angela and David Reddish appealed the magistrate court’s decision to superior court, which issued a writ of possession on March 29, 2012. The Reddishes filed a notice of appeal on April 11, 2012. We lack jurisdiction. This appeal involves a de novo appeal of a magistrate court ruling. Thus, the Reddishes were required to follow the discretionary appeal procedure. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1); English v. Delbridge, 216 Ga. App. 366, 367 (454 SE2d 175) (1995). Their failure to do so deprives us of jurisdiction, and this appeal is therefore DISMISSED.
