Dear Mr. Dunagan :

In response to your correspondence received in this office we do not have a case styled in your name pending in this Court.

Until a case is docketed in this Court, all communications and questions regarding the status of your case should be directed to your attorney of record, if you have one, or to the trial court from which you are appealing.

An appeal from an order denying a petition for mandamus is to the Supreme Court of Georgia, not the Court of Appeals. I am returning the documents you forwarded to us in case you wish to use them in future proceedings.

Sincerely,

William L. Martin, III

Administrator/Clerk

Court of Appeals of Georgia
