Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ August 26, 2020 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A21A0046. DOUGLAS THOMPSON v. THE STATE.

Following a jury trial in 2011, Douglas Thompson was convicted of four counts of aggravated assault, three counts of false imprisonment, and one count each of armed robbery, burglary, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, and possession of a firearm during commission of a felony. We affirmed Thompson’s convictions on direct appeal. Case No. A12A2000 (Mar. 7, 2013). In 2019, Thompson filed a pro se “motion to vacate/discharge all offenses,” in which he raised numerous attacks to the validity of his convictions. The trial court denied the motion, and Thompson filed this appeal. The State has filed a motion to dismiss the appeal, arguing that Thompson may not appeal the trial court’s order. We agree.

As the Supreme Court has made clear, a post-conviction motion seeking to vacate or set aside an allegedly void criminal conviction is not one of the established procedures for challenging the validity of a judgment in a criminal case, and an appeal from the trial court’s ruling on such a motion should be dismissed. See Roberts v. State, 286 Ga. 532, 532 (690 SE2d 150) (2010). Accordingly, the State’s motion to dismiss is hereby GRANTED, and Thompson’s appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
