Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,____________________ February 11, 2015

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A15D0238. WASEEM DAKER v. THE STATE.

Waseem Daker was convicted of two counts of aggravated stalking, and his convictions were affirmed on appeal on April 11, 2000.1 Over the past few years, Daker has filed a multitude of applications and motions in this court.2 The present application involves an October 7, 2014 order denying Daker’s “Writ of Coram Nobis.” Daker originally filed his discretionary application in the Supreme Court on December 8, 2014. The Supreme Court transferred it to this Court. We, however, lack jurisdiction. To be timely, a discretionary application must be filed within 30 days of entry of the order to be appealed. OCGA § 5-6-35 (d); Hill v. State, 204 Ga. App. 582 (420 SE2d 393) (1992). Because this application was filed 62 days after entry of the order Daker seeks to appeal, it is untimely. We thus lack jurisdiction to consider the application, which is hereby DISMISSED. See Hill, supra.
