Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ December 18, 2014

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A14A2227. JON-CHRISTOPHER SOWELLS v. THE STATE

The appeal in this case was docketed on August 8, 2014. Appellants’ brief and enumeration of errors were due on August 28, 2014. On August 27, 2014, this Court granted Appellant an extension until September 29, 2014 to file his brief and enumeration of error. As of the date of this Order, Appellant has not filed his brief and enumeration of errors, nor has he requested another extension or otherwise communicated with the Court. Accordingly, this appeal is hereby dismissed as abandoned. See Court of Appeals Rule 23 (a); Reese v. State, 216 Ga. App. 773 (456 SE2d 271) (1995).

Appellee’s Motion To Dismiss Appeal is hereby dismissed as moot.

To Jon-Christopher Sowells: Your appeal has been DISMISSED because your brief and enumeration of errors were not filed when due. If you have decided you do not want to appeal, you need not do anything more. However, if you do still want to appeal, you may have the right to an OUT-OF-TIME APPEAL – but you MUST TAKE ACTION to exercise that right by moving for an out-of-time appeal in the trial court. If your motion for an out-of-time appeal is denied, you may appeal that denial to this court within thirty (30) days of the trial court’s decision. See: Rowland v. State, 264 Ga. 872 (452 SE2d 756) (1995).
