James Matthew Davis v. State ( 2016 )

Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia ATLANTA,____________________ February 12, 2016 The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order: A16A0429. DAVIS v. THE STATE. Appellant, proceeding pro se, appeals from the denial of his extraordinary motion to modify his sentence. The appeal was docketed on October 30, 2015, and Appellant was required to file a brief and enumeration of errors no later than November 19, 2015. See Court of Appeals Rule 23 (a) (an appellant’s brief and enumeration of error shall be filed within 20 days after the appeal is docketed unless extended by this Court and failure to do so may result in dismissal of the appeal). On December 2, 2015, Appellant’s brief was returned because it was not signed and did not contain certificate of service. As of February 10, 2016, Appellant still had not submitted a brief and enumeration of errors, nor had he requested an extension. The State has moved to dismiss Appellant’s appeal. We GRANT the State’s motion, and Appellant’s appeal is hereby DISMISSED for failure to file a brief and enumeration of errors in support of his appeal.
