Gregory M. Stokes v. State

Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ April 12, 2019 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A19A1680. GREGORY M. STOKES v. THE STATE.

On March 17, 2014, the trial court revoked Gregory Stokes’s probation. Stokes then filed this direct appeal. We, however, lack jurisdiction.

Because the underlying subject matter of this appeal is the revocation of Stokes’s probation, he was required to file an application for discretionary appeal in order to obtain appellate review. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (5); White v. State, 233 Ga. App. 873 (505 SE2d 228) (1998). We lack jurisdiction over this direct appeal, which is therefore DISMISSED.

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia Clerk’s Office, Atlanta,____________________ 04/12/2019 I certify that the above is a true extract from the minutes of the Court of Appeals of Georgia.

Witness my signature and the seal of said court hereto affixed the day and year last above written.

, Clerk.
