Justice Queen Al-Ameen v. State
Justice Queen Al-Ameen v. State
Opinion
Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ September 15, 2022 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A23D0053. JUSTICE QUEEN AL-AMEEN v. THE STATE.
On August 5, 2022, the trial court entered an order dismissing Justice Queen Al-Ameen’s motion for speedy trial. Al-Ameen then filed this pro se application for a discretionary appeal. We, however, lack jurisdiction.
Because Al-Ameen’s case is still pending below, to obtain review of the trial court’s August 5 order, she was required to comply with the interlocutory appeal procedure set forth in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), including obtaining a certificate of immediate review. See Boyd v. State, 191 Ga. App. 435, 435 (383 SE2d 906) (1989).
Al-Ameen’s failure to obtain a certificate of immediate review deprives this Court of jurisdiction over her application. For this reason, Al-Ameen’s discretionary application is hereby DISMISSED.
Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia Clerk’s Office, Atlanta,____________________ 09/15/2022 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.
