Donald Futch v. State

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ April 20, 2017 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A17A1541. DONALD FUTCH v. THE STATE. Donald Futch filed this direct appeal from the trial court’s order revoking his probation for violating special conditions of his probation. An application for discretionary appeal, however, is required to appeal orders regarding probation revocation. OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (5); White v. State, 233 Ga. App. 873, 873-874 ( 505 SE2d 228 ) (1998) (where the underlying subject matter is probation revocation, the discretionary appeal procedure applies). Futch’s failure to comply with the discretionary appeal procedure deprives us of jurisdiction to consider this appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
