Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ October 06, 2025 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A26A0458. SHAUN TRAVIS LEGARE v. THE STATE.

In 2016, Shaun Travis Legare was convicted of aggravated child molestation, aggravated sexual battery, and enticing a child for indecent purposes. This Court affirmed Legare’s convictions on appeal. Legare v. State, Case No. A20A1359 (Sept.

10, 2020). In 2024, Legare filed a “Motion for Void Sentence/Failure to Arraign,” asserting that the trial court never arraigned him and thus his convictions should be vacated. The trial court denied his motion, and Legare then filed this direct appeal. As explained below, the appeal must be dismissed.

Regardless of nomenclature, Legare’s motion seeks to challenge the validity of his convictions. See Roberts v. State, 286 Ga. 532, 532 (690 SE2d 150) (2010). As the Supreme Court of Georgia has made clear, however, a post-conviction motion challenging the validity of a conviction and seeking to set aside or vacate the same is not a valid procedure in a criminal case. See Williams v. State, 283 Ga. 94, 94-95 (656 SE2d 144) (2008). Thus, any appeal from the denial of such a motion must be dismissed. Roberts, 286 Ga. at 532; Harper v. State, 286 Ga. 216, 218 (2) (686 SE2d 786) (2009).

Accordingly, this appeal is hereby DISMISSED.
