                                        ATLANTA,____________________
                                                 April 12, 2018

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A18E0041. THE STATE v. COHEN et al.

      The State has filed an emergency motion to halt jury deliberations in the above
case that was tried in the Fulton County Superior Court. They seek to challenge the
trial court’s charge to the jury regarding one-party consent to video recordings.

      The State initially filed this emergency motion in the Supreme Court of
Georgia, which transferred it to this Court. In the interim, the jury returned a verdict
of acquittal. As it appears that the verdict has been received and the jury has been
released, this Court cannot provide the requested relief. Accordingly, the State’s
emergency motion is hereby DENIED as moot.
