In the Court of Appeals of Georgia A13A0394. FORD v. THE STATE.

PHIPPS, Presiding Judge.

Kwambi Ford filed a direct appeal from the trial court’s denial of his motion to dismiss his indictment 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).1 Ford’s appeal is therefore dismissed.2 Appeal dismissed. Ellington, C. J., and Branch, J., concur.

Sosniak v. State, 292 Ga. 35, 36 (2) (734 SE2d 362) (2012); Morris v. State, 319 Ga. App. 198 (734 SE2d 926) (2012).
