    ATLANTA,____________________
    August 10, 2017
    The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:
    A17A2118. RICHARD BISHOP v. THE STATE.
    A jury found Richard Bishop guilty of operating a chop shop, theft by receiving
    stolen property, and possession of tools for the commission of a crime, and his
    convictions were affirmed on appeal in an unpublished opinion. See Bishop v. State,
    Case No. A16A1486 (decided February 14, 2017). Bishop subsequently filed an
    extraordinary motion for new trial, which the trial court denied. Bishop then filed
    this direct appeal.
    An order denying an extraordinary motion for a new trial must be appealed by
    application for discretionary appeal. See OCGA § 5-6-35 (a) (7); Balkcom v. State,
    
    227 Ga. App. 327
    , 329 (489 SE2d 129) (1997). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction
    over this direct appeal, which is hereby DISMISSED.
