If the party is then aggrieved by the decision of the superior court, an application for discretionary review may be filed in this Court. See OCGA § 5-6-35(a)(1). Under Court of Appeals Rule 11(b), “[w]hen an appeal or application filed in this Court is within the jurisdiction of another court, it shall be transferred by order to that court.” Accordingly this application is hereby TRANSFERRED to the Marietta Municipal Court with direction to send it to the Cobb County Superior Court for disposition.
