314 Ga. 823

FINAL COPY S21G1281. BUCKNER-WEBB et al. v. THE STATE. LAGRUA, Justice. We granted certiorari in this case to determine whether a trial court’s order denying a motion to withdraw as counsel based on alleged conflicts of interest is immediately appealable under the collateral order doctrine. For the reasons that follow, we conclude that such orders do not fall within the “very small class” of trial court orders that are appealable under that doctrine, Duke v. State, 306 Ga. 171, 172(1) ( 829 SE2d 348) (2019), and thus we affirm the Court of Appeals’ decision in Buckner-Webb v. State,
