Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,__________________ October 30, 2012

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A13I0066. ADAM FUNK v. THE STATE.

Adam Funk filed this application for interlocutory appeal from the superior court’s order denying his Plea in Abatement based upon OCGA § 17-7-53.1. Such an order is directly appealable. Langlands v. State, 282 Ga. 103, 104 (1) (646 SE2d 253) (2007) (“order overruling a plea in bar based on . . . OCGA § 17-7-53.1 is directly appealable”). This Court will grant a timely application for interlocutory appeal if the order is subject to direct appeal and the applicant has not otherwise filed a timely notice of appeal. Spivey v. Hembree, 268 Ga. App. 485, 486 n. 1 (602 SE2d 246) (2004). It appears that Funk has not filed a notice of appeal; therefore, the application is hereby GRANTED. Funk shall have ten days from the date of this order to file a notice of appeal in the superior court. The clerk of the superior court is directed to include a copy of this order in the record transmitted to this Court.
