All the Justices concur, except Carley and Hines, JJ, who dissent.
Carley, Justice,

¶3dissenting.

¶4I dissent from the denial of this habeas corpus matter on the merits because petitioner did not “file a written application for a certificate of probable cause to appeal with the Clerk of the Supreme Court within thirty days of the entry of the order denying him relief,” as required by OCGA § 9-14-52 (b). Accordingly, I would dismiss.

¶5I am authorized to state that Justice Hines joins in this dissent.
