RE:	A99A0607 .	Bennie Wilson, Jr. v. The State

Dear Mr. Wilson:

I am in receipt of your letter of postmark date November 27, 1998. Please be advised that the above appeal was dismissed for failure to comply with the discretionary appeal procedures as set out in the Official Code of Georgia Annotated section 5-6-35(a). I have enclosed a copy of the Court's order for your review.

Please be advised that any motion for reconsideration must be physically filed with the Court within 10 days of the date of the order. A notice of intent to apply for certiorari with the Supreme Court of Georgia must be filed within 10 days, but a notice of intent may be filed by following the certified mail rule. I have enclosed a copy of the rules of the Court of Appeals of Georgia for your review.

The Supreme Court, not the Court of Appeals, has jurisdiction over habeas corpus cases. You may wish to contact the Administrative Office of the Courts at their address at: 244 Washington Street, S.W. , Suite 550, Atlanta, Georgia 30334; or the Supreme Court at their address at: 244 Washington Street, S.W. , Suite 572, Atlanta, Georgia 30334 for forms for state habeas corpus petitions.

The address of the State Bar of Georgia is: 800 The Hurt Building, 50 Hurt Plaza, Atlanta, Georgia 30303-2934. The address of the Georgia Bureau of Investigation is: 3121 Panthersville Road, Atlanta, Georgia; the address for the Department of Corrections is: 2 Martin Luther King, Jr. Drive, Atlanta, Georgia.

I do not have the addresses for the other organizations you requested.
