Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ June 09, 2022

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A22D0394. RAQUEL HALL v. JAMES HALL.

On May 18, 2022, Raquel Hall filed this application for discretionary review of the trial court’s April 1, 2022 final judgment and decree of divorce and award of attorney fees. We lack jurisdiction because the application is untimely. To be timely, an application for discretionary review must be filed within 30 days of entry of the order or judgment to be appealed. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (d). As this application was filed 47 days after entry of the order at issue, the application is untimely and is hereby DISMISSED. See Crosson v. Conway, 291 Ga. 220, 220 (1) (728 SE2d 617) (2012); see also Boyle v. State, 190 Ga. App. 734, 734 (380 SE2d 57) (1989) (“The requirements of OCGA § 5-6-35 are jurisdictional and this [C]ourt cannot accept an appeal not made in compliance therewith.”).
