Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ March 20, 2017

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A17A1308. JOE ELVIN CLOUD v. EDWARD PHILBIN, WARDEN.

In 2006, Joe Elvin Cloud was convicted of malice murder and other crimes.1 Cloud subsequently filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus, which the superior court denied, and Cloud appealed to this Court. The Supreme Court, however, has appellate jurisdiction over all cases involving habeas corpus. See Ga. Const. of 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (4). This appeal is therefore TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court for disposition.
