                                       ATLANTA,____________________
                                                May 04, 2020

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A20A1737. MARCUS TUMLINSON v. DARYL DIX, IN HIS OFFICIAL
    CAPACITY AS SHERIFF OF SPALDING COUNTY, GEORGIA.

      Marcus Tumlinson appeals from the trial court’s order dismissing his petition
for a writ of habeas corpus. Although Tumlinson filed his appeal in this Court, he has
moved to transfer the appeal to the Georgia Supreme Court.
      Under our Constitution, the Supreme Court has exclusive appellate jurisdiction
over all cases involving habeas corpus. See Ga. Const. of 1983, Art. VI, Sec. VI, Par.
III (4). Tumlinson’s motion to transfer is GRANTED, and this appeal is therefore
TRANSFERRED to the Supreme Court for disposition.
