Ellington, Presiding Judge. On April 5, 2017, Appellant Jorge Soberanis filed pro se a notice of appeal from a certain criminal judgment entered in the Superior Court of Cherokee County on March 20, 2017. On June 29, following docketing in this Court, the State moved to dismiss Soberanis’s appeal on the basis, inter alia, that his pro se notice of appeal was a nullity because he was represented by counsel when he filed it. On the same day, this Court directed the clerk of the trial court to supplement the record with any documents in the possession of the clerk that pertained either to the release of Soberanis’s trial counsel as his legal representative, the substitution of another attorney, or a finding on the record of Soberanis’s waiver of his right to counsel. Before the trial court acted, new appellate counsel moved to remand.[1] We granted Soberanis’s motion to remand and denied without prejudice as moot the State’s motion to dismiss. The State petitioned for a writ of certiorari.On October 16, 2017, the Supreme Court of Georgia issued White v. State, 302 Ga. 315 (806 SE2d 489) (2017), which is relevant to the legal representation issue in the case at bar. On February 19, 2018, the Supreme Court vacated this Court’s opinion, that is, the order denying the State’s motion to dismiss Soberanis’s appeal, and remanded for reconsideration in light of White v. State. In that case, the Supreme Court rejected the argument that a criminal defendant’s “representation by counsel terminates automatically on the entry of a judgment and sentence — whether following the return of a jury verdict or the entry of a guilty plea[,]” such argument being contrary to the Court’s precedents on outoftime appeals “ which recognize that defense counsel’s duties towards their clients extend for at least the 30 days after the entry of judgment when a notice of appeal may be filed.” 305 Ga. at 318 (2). The Court held that, at a minimum, legal representation continues — unless interrupted by entry of an order allowing counsel to withdraw or compliance with the requirements for substitution of counsel — through the end of the term at which a trial court enters a judgment of conviction and sentence on a guilty plea, during which time the [trial] court retains authority to change its prior orders and judgments on motion or sua sponte for the purpose of promoting justice.
