                                                   July 23, 2014

The Court of Appeals hereby passes the following order:

A14D0434. EDDIE LEE JINKS v. THE STATE.

      Eddie Jinks seeks to appeal the trial court’s order denying his motion for an out
of time appeal. An order denying a motion for an out of time appeal, however, is a
directly appealable order. See, e.g., Lunsford v. State, 237 Ga. App. 696 (515 SE2d
198) (1999).
      When a party applies for discretionary review of a directly appealable order,
we grant the application under OCGA § 5-6-35 (j). Accordingly, this application is
hereby GRANTED. Jinks shall have 10 days from the date of this order to file a
notice of appeal with the trial court. The trial court is instructed to include a copy of
this order in the appellate record.
