Dear Mr. Boney:

I am in receipt of your letter dated July 24, 1998. As I stated to you in my letter of July 13, 1998, the Notice of Appeal is filed in the trial court. It seems you have done that. OCGA § 5-6-43 sets out the time frame in which the clerk at the trial court has to prepare the record and send the record and/or transcript to the appellate court.

Until a case is docketed with the Court of Appeals, please direct your communications to the trial court.

Sincerely,

William L. Martin, III

Administrator/Clerk

Court of Appeals of Georgia
