DECIDED NOVEMBER 6, 1986.
Traffic violation. DeKalb Superior Court. Before Judge Coursey.
Darel C. Mitchell, for appellant.
Sidney Johnson, Genet McIntosh, for appellees.
Castor files the present direct appeal from an order of the superior court on a writ of certiorari from the Recorder's Court of DeKalb County. Such an appeal is governed by the mandatory discretionary appeal procedures of OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (1). Having failed to follow proper appellate procedure, Castor has rendered this court without jurisdiction to consider the merits of his claims. Crews v. State, 175 Ga. App. 300 ( 333 S.E.2d 176) (1985); Hogan v. Taylor County Bd. of Education, 157 Ga. App. 680 ( 278 S.E.2d 106) (1981).
Appeal dismissed. Deen, P. J., and Benham, J., concur.
