Johnson v. State

Court of Appeals of Georgia
Nov 10, 1970
178 S.E.2d 743 (Ga. Ct. App. 1970)

Opinion

45678.

ARGUED OCTOBER 5, 1970.

DECIDED NOVEMBER 10, 1970.

Appellate procedure. Charlton Superior Court. Before Judge Hodges.

M. C. Pritchard, for appellant.

Dewey Hayes, District Attorney, for appellee.


The State has filed a motion to dismiss this appeal. The notice of appeal, which designates a transcript for inclusion in the record, was filed in the trial court on March 26, 1970. The transcript was filed on July 18, 1970, and there is no order extending the time for filing beyond the initial 30-day period allowed by law. A failure to comply with the requirements of the Appellate Practice Act in this respect (Ga. L. 1965, pp. 18, 21, 26; Code Ann. §§ 6-804, 6-806) subjects an appeal to dismissal. Fahrig v. Garrett, 224 Ga. 817, 818 ( 165 S.E.2d 126); Dowling v. State, 120 Ga. App. 810 ( 172 S.E.2d 190); Fowler v. State, 226 Ga. 646 ( 177 S.E.2d 47).

Appeal dismissed. Eberhardt and Pannell, JJ., concur.

ARGUED OCTOBER 5, 1970 — DECIDED NOVEMBER 10, 1970.
