Opinion

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia

ATLANTA,__________________ July 25, 2013

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A13D0469. WILLIAM TERRENCE MURRAY v. THE STATE.

William Terrence Murray filed this application for discretionary appeal seeking review of a municipal court order transferring a criminal matter to the state court. Such a transfer order is not a final order. See Wright v. Millines, 212 Ga. App. 453 (442 SE2d 304) (1994); Griffith v. Georgia Bd. of Dentistry, 175 Ga. App. 533 (333 SE2d 647) (1985). Accordingly, Murray was required to comply with the interlocutory application procedures set forth in OCGA § 5-6-34 (b), which include obtaining a certificate of immediate review from the trial court. See id. Murray’s failure to comply with the interlocutory appeal procedures deprives us of jurisdiction over this application, which is hereby DISMISSED
