A20A0544

Decided: June 30, 2022

Carlton Todd Hayes, Sara Manly Grainger, David Martin McElyea, Emily Cosette Labutta, for Appellant. D. Benjamin Sessions, for Appellee.

In State v. Walker,¹ this Court vacated the trial court's order dismissing criminal charges against Sara Walker for want of prosecution, and remanded the case to the trial court. The Supreme Court of Georgia reversed our opinion in Walker v. State.² We therefore vacate our earlier opinion, adopt the Supreme Court's opinion as our own, and affirm the judgment of the trial court.

Judgment affirmed.
