Criminal Procedure — new trials

Terez Cook appeals an order denying his “motion for entry of written order denying motion for new trial in the interest of justice.” Cook seeks entry of the order to facilitate an appeal from the circuit court’s 2010 oral rulings rejecting Cook’s motions for a new trial in the interest of justice and based on newly discovered evidence. Because the circuit court already entered an order disposing of Cook’s postconviction motions and lacks authority to enter another order disposing of these motions, and because the proposed new appeal would be procedurally barred and is meritless, we affirm the order. This opinion will not be published.
