Opinion
A24A1487
07-16-2024
The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:
Following a bench trial, Jody Richard Hoskins was found guilty of misdemeanor obstruction of a law enforcement officer. Hoskins then filed a pro se "Notice of Filing Petition for Certiorari" and a notice of appeal. The petition for certiorari was transmitted to the Supreme Court of Georgia, which transferred the case to this Court. See Case No. S24A0783 (April 30, 2024). The appeal was docketed as Case No. A24A1487. Hoskins's notice of appeal was transmitted to this Court, and has been docketed as Case No. A24A1671. Because Hoskins seeks to appeal the same misdemeanor conviction in both appeals, A24A1487 is duplicative of A24A1671. And because a proper notice of appeal was filed in Case No. A24A1671, the appeal in this case is hereby DISMISSED as duplicative.
