Background
This is a Disposition notice based solely on a one-page order of the Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia, dated October 30, 2026, in Atlanta. The order identifies the case as Sara Haley Cobb v. The State, docket number A27I0072, and lists lower court number 2025CR293. The document states that the Court of Appeals considered an Application for Interlocutory Appeal.
The order does not describe the underlying charges, the superior court proceedings, the ruling sought to be reviewed, the parties’ arguments, or the procedural history beyond the application itself. It also does not identify a deciding judge or panel. The clerk’s certification states that the document is a true extract from the minutes of the Court of Appeals of Georgia, witnessed by the clerk’s signature and the court’s seal.
The Court’s Holding
The Court of Appeals ordered that the Application for Interlocutory Appeal be “GRANTED.” The order permits the appellant to file a Notice of Appeal within 10 days of the date of the order. It further directs the Clerk of Superior Court to include a copy of the order in the record transmitted to the Court of Appeals.
The order supplies no reasoning and resolves no substantive issue in the criminal case. It does not state the merits of any claim, identify the interlocutory ruling at issue, or decide whether that ruling was correct. The only disposition shown is the grant of permission to pursue the interlocutory appeal, together with the filing period and the direction concerning the record.
Key Takeaways
- The Court of Appeals granted Sara Haley Cobb’s Application for Interlocutory Appeal on October 30, 2026.
- The appellant may file a Notice of Appeal within 10 days of the order’s date.
- The Clerk of Superior Court must include a copy of the order in the record transmitted to the Court of Appeals.
- The public order contains no substantive reasoning and does not decide the merits of the underlying criminal proceedings.
Why It Matters
The order establishes that the interlocutory appeal may proceed and specifies the appellant’s next procedural step: filing a Notice of Appeal within the stated 10-day period. It also ensures that the order granting the application becomes part of the record sent to the appellate court.
Because the document is limited to this outcome, no broader legal rule, claim-specific rationale, standard of review, forfeiture determination, or merits holding can be attributed to the court from this order alone. Public reasoning concerning the application is unavailable in the supplied document.
