Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ February 28, 2018

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A18A1200. TIMOTHY C. ADAMSON v. BRADFORD E. MEEHAN.

Timothy Adamson filed this direct appeal from a trial court order denying his OCGA § 9-11-60 (d) motion to set aside a 2005 judgment. We lack jurisdiction. “[T]he denial of a motion to set aside a final judgment under OCGA § 9-11-60 is not directly appealable and instead requires the filing of an application for discretionary appeal under OCGA § 5-6-35 (b).” Jim Ellis Atlanta v. Adamson, 283 Ga. App. 116, 116 (640 SE2d 688) (2006); see OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (8). Adamson’s failure to follow the required appellate procedure deprives us of jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
