  • Court of Appeals
    of the State of Georgia
    ATLANTA,____________________
    March 14, 2022
    The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:
    A22A1059. NORTHWEST MEDICAL CENTER, LLC v. DOCTOR’S ANTI-
    AGING INSTITUTE, INC.
    Doctor’s Anti-Aging Institute, Inc., filed garnishment claims against multiple
    banks seeking to collect a default judgment it had obtained against Northwest
    Medical Center, LLC (“Northwest Medical”). Northwest Medical sought to challenge
    the garnishment, claiming the affidavit was insufficient. The trial court denied the
    claim, and Northwest Medical filed this appeal. We, however, lack jurisdiction.
    Appeals in cases involving garnishment must be initiated by an application for
    discretionary appeal filed with this Court. OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (4); Maloy v. Ewing,
    
    226 Ga. App. 490
    , 491 (486 SE2d 708) (1997). Because Northwest Medical failed to
    follow the required procedure, we lack jurisdiction to consider this appeal, which is
    hereby DISMISSED.
