Pshatoia Larose v. First American Home Warranty
Pshatoia Larose v. First American Home Warranty
Opinion
Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ November 15, 2023 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A24D0115. PSHATOIA LAROSE v. FIRST AMERICAN HOME WARRANTY et al.
Pshatoia LaRose filed an appeal of a magistrate court decision in superior court. The superior court dismissed the appeal on August 22, 2023, and LaRose filed a “motion for order for dismissal to be retracted and proceed with jury trial,” which the superior court denied on September 1. LaRose filed this application for discretionary appeal on October 16. We lack jurisdiction.
Ordinarily, an application for a discretionary appeal must be filed within 30 days of the order being appealed. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (d). Here, LaRose filed this application 45 days after the entry of the September 1 order and 55 days after the entry of the August 22 order. Given that the application is untimely, we are without jurisdiction to consider it. See Crosson v. Conway, 291 Ga. 220, 220 (1) (728 SE2d 617) (2012); see also Boyle v. State, 190 Ga. App. 734, 734 (380 SE2d 57) (1989) (“The requirements of OCGA § 5-6-35 are jurisdictional and this [C]ourt cannot accept an appeal not made in compliance therewith.”). Accordingly, this application is hereby DISMISSED.
