Court of Appeals
of the State of Georgia

                                       ATLANTA,____________________
                                                November 14, 2023

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A24D0145. WILLIAM BENNETT v. THE STATE.

      On October 20, 2023, William Bennett filed this application for discretionary
review of the trial court’s order, entered March 11, 2022, revoking his probation. We
lack jurisdiction because the application is untimely.
      To be timely, an application for discretionary review must be filed within 30
days of entry of the order or judgment to be appealed. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (d). As
this application was filed 588 days after entry of the order revoking Bennett’s
probation, it is untimely and is hereby DISMISSED. See Crosson v. Conway, 291 Ga.
220, 220 (1) (728 SE2d 617) (2012); see also Boyle v. State, 190 Ga. App. 734, 734
(380 SE2d 57) (1989) (“The requirements of OCGA § 5-6-35 are jurisdictional and
this [C]ourt cannot accept an appeal not made in compliance therewith.”).
