Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ January 21, 2015

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15A0901. RUTH FALLS-MILLER v. SAVANNAH-CHATHAM COUNTY BOARD OF EDUCATION.

Ruth Falls-Miller filed this direct appeal seeking review of the trial court’s order affirming the decision of the State Board of Education. We lack jurisdiction. An appeal from a decision of the superior court reviewing a decision of a local administrative agency must be taken by application for discretionary appeal. OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1). Because Falls-Miller failed to follow the discretionary appeal procedure as required, this appeal is ordered DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction.
