47453.
    HEWLETT v. THE STATE.
    Argued September 6, 1972
    Decided September 28, 1972
    Rehearing denied October 13, 1972
    
      Joseph B. Bergen, for appellant.
    
      Andrew J. Ryan, Jr., District Attorney, Howard A. McGlasson, Jr., for appellee.
   Bell, Chief Judge.

Absent a certificate for immediate review, the denial of defendant’s plea of autrefois acquit is not a final judgment. Bruce v. State, 122 Ga. App. 159 (176 SE2d 515). As the case is pending below, the appeal is premature and the State’s motion to dismiss the appeal is granted.

Appeal dismissed.

Evans and Stolz, JJ., concur.
