Shea Belcher v. State
Shea Belcher v. State
Opinion
Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,__________________ August 28, 2013 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A13A2117. SHEA BELCHER v. THE STATE.
Shea Belcher pled guilty to armed robbery and simple kidnapping in 2006. We affirmed Belcher’s convictions in an unpublished opinion. See Belcher v. State, Case No. A11A2138, decided June 18, 2012. Belcher filed a motion to correct void sentence, which the trial court denied on April 9, 2013. In Case No. A13A2039, Belcher appealed from the trial court’s order. On July 9, 2013, we dismissed Belcher’s appeal for failure to raise a colorable claim that his sentence was void.
In the instant case, Belcher appeals from the same order, raising the same argument that the indictment was invalid because he waived the right to a grand jury indictment. Belcher is not entitled to pursue a second appeal of an order that has previously been appealed. See generally South Georgia Medical Center v. Washington, 269 Ga. 366, 367 (497 SE2d 793) (1998) (an appellate ruling in a case is binding in all subsequent proceedings). Accordingly, this appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
