Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ April 12, 2016

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A16D0325. MARCUS SAMUEL v. MARTY ALLEN, WARDEN.

In 2005, Marcus Samuel pled guilty to two counts of kidnapping, two counts of armed robbery, burglary, possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, and possession of a firearm by a convicted felon. In 2014, Samuel filed a petition for a writ of habeas corpus. After the superior court denied his petition, Samuel filed an appeal to this Court. The Supreme Court, however, has appellate jurisdiction over all cases involving habeas corpus. See Ga. Const. 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par. III (4). This appeal is thus TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court for disposition.
