¶1This is an appeal from the issuance of a writ of possession in an eviction proceeding. In addition to possession of the premises, the landlord also seeks to obtain a judgment for past rent, a claim which *363remains pending below. Held:
¶2Because the claim for rent remains pending, the writ of possession is an interlocutory order which is not appealable absent compliance with the interlocutory appeal procedures set forth in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b). Accord Grantham v. Nelson, 160 Ga. App. 68 (286 SE2d 59) (1981). The appeal is accordingly dismissed.
¶3Appeal dismissed.
