The appellant filed an appeal to superior court from an adverse judgment entered against him in magistrate court. The superior court dismissed the appeal as untimely, and the appellant filed a direct appeal to this court. Because appeals from decisions of superior courts reviewing decisions of lower courts are subject to the discretionary appeal process, see OCGA 5-6-35 (a) (1), the appeal must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Accord Brewer v. Bd. of Zoning &c. of Atlanta, 170 Ga. App. 351 (317 SE2d 327) (1984).
