TYRELL MALEEK CORLEY v. THE STATE.
This appeal was docketed on September 9, 2021, and appellant's brief containing an enumeration of errors was due by September 29, 2019. As appellant has failed to timely file a brief and enumeration of errors with this Court, the appeal is DISMISSED for failure to file a brief and enumeration of errors within the period ordered by this Court. See Court of Appeals Rule 23 (a).
The Clerk is directed to send a copy of this order directly to Mr. Corley. Mr. Corley's counsel (John Forbes) shall also receive a copy of this order, and Mr. Forbes is directed to forward an additional copy to Mr. Corley. Mr. Forbes shall bear the primary responsibility of informing Mr. Corley of the disposition of this appeal and his options as a result. Pursuant to Rowland v. State, 264 Ga. 872, 875 (2) (452 S.E.2d 756) (1995), and Reese v. State, 216 Ga.App. 773, 775 (456 S.E.2d 271) (1995), Mr. Corley is advised as follows:
Ms. Corley, your appeal has been DISMISSED because no brief and enumeration of errors were filed. If you have decided you do not want to appeal, you need not do anything more. However, if you do still want to appeal, you may have the right to an OUT-OF-TIME APPEAL -- but YOU MUST TAKE ACTION to exercise that right by moving for an out-of-time appeal in the trial court. If your motion for an out-of-time appeal is granted, the trial court should appoint an attorney for you if you want one and cannot pay for one. If your motion for an out-of time appeal is denied, you have the right to appeal that denial to this Court within thirty days of the trial court's decision.
