Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ July 27, 2022

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A22A1724. STEVEN THOMAS SNOWDEN v. THE STATE.

Steven Thomas Snowden pled guilty to the sale of methamphetamine, and he was sentenced to ten years with three years to serve and the remainder on probation. Snowden subsequently violated the terms of his probation, and the trial court revoked five years of probation. Snowden appeals the revocation order. We, however, lack jurisdiction. Because the underlying subject matter of Snowden’s appeal is the revocation of his probation, he was required to file an application for discretionary appeal in order to obtain appellate review. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (5); Jones v. State, 322 Ga. App. 269, 269 n.2 (745 SE2d 1) (2013); Zamora v. State, 226 Ga. App. 105 (485 SE2d 214) (1997). His failure to do so deprives us of jurisdiction over this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
