Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,__________________ May 20, 2013 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A13A1784. GERRETTE RAY BELLEW v. THE STATE.

Gerrette Bellew filed this direct appeal from the trial court’s order denying his motion to dismiss the indictment on constitutional speedy trial grounds. The Supreme Court of Georgia has recently ruled, however, that such an order is not directly appealable and that a defendant must follow the interlocutory appeal procedures of OCGA § 5-6-34 (b) to obtain immediate appellate review. See Sosniak v. State, 292 Ga. 35 (2) (734 SE2d 362) (2012); see also Stevens v. State, 292 Ga. 218 (734 SE2d 743) (2012). Because Bellew has failed to follow the required appellate procedure, his appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
