Case Information

*1 Court of Appeals

of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ September 01, 2017

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A18D0058. HENRY DONALD COLEMAN v. EMNA GRAMI.

The trial court entered the final judgment and decree of divorce in this case on July 12, 2017. On August 14, 2017, Henry Coleman filed this application for discretionary appeal. However, we lack jurisdiction.

To be timely, a discretionary application must be filed within 30 days of entry of the order sought to be appealed. OCGA § 5-6-35 (d). The requirements of OCGA § 5-6-35 are jurisdictional, and this Court cannot accept an application for appeal not made in compliance therewith. Boyle v. State , 190 Ga. App. 734, 734 (380 SE2d 57) (1989). Because this application was filed 33 days after entry of the order Coleman seeks to appeal, it is untimely, and we lack jurisdiction to consider it. Accordingly, this application is hereby DISMISSED.
