Dear Mr. Maddox:

I am in receipt of your letter of postmark date November 13, 1998 regarding lower court case number: Z-71944. You did not state the lower court county, but I am assuming it is Fulton County. At any rate, there is no case docketed in the Court of Appeals of Georgia under your name other than A90A0714 . I have no case docketed in the Court of Appeals of Georgia under Z-71944 from Fulton County.

I suggest you direct your communications to the trial court clerk in regards to the status of your appeal. The case has not yet been docketed in the Court of Appeals of Georgia.

I have enclosed a copy of the rules of the Court of Appeals of Georgia for your review.

Sincerely,

William L. Martin, III
