Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,__________________ January 31, 2013 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A12A2533. RAYMOND L. WILLIAMS v. THE STATE.

Raymond L. Williams filed a direct appeal from the trial court’s denial of his motion to dismiss the indictment against him based upon an alleged violation of his constitutional right to a speedy trial. The Supreme Court of Georgia has recently ruled, however, that such a claim is not directly appealable and that a defendant must follow the interlocutory appeal procedures of OCGA § 5-6-34 (b). Sosniak v. State, ___ Ga. ___ (2) (Case No. S12A0799, decided November 19, 2012); see also Stevens v. State, ___ Ga. ___ (Case No. S12A1795, decided November 27, 2012). In reliance on this recent Supreme Court authority, the State has moved to dismiss Williams’s appeal. The State’s motion to dismiss is hereby GRANTED, and this appeal is DISMISSED.
