1Opinion of the Court

Bell, Chief Judge.

Absent a certificate for immediate review, the denial of defendant’s plea of autrefois acquit is not a final judgment. Bruce v. State, 122 Ga. App. 159 (176 SE2d 515). As the case is pending below, the appeal is premature and the State’s motion to dismiss the appeal is granted.

Appeal dismissed.

Evans and Stolz, JJ., concur.
