Supreme Court of Georgia

Boone v. State

January 19, 2022313 Ga. 78

Summary

The Supreme Court of Georgia affirmed the trial court’s denial of Boone’s motion for an out‑of‑time appeal, holding that such a motion is not a remedy for an untimely request to withdraw a guilty plea. The Court reasoned that even if Boone’s right to appeal were frustrated, an out‑of‑time appeal does not permit a belated withdrawal of his plea.
