CompFox AI Summary
Appellant Curtis Bernard Robbins was convicted of improper photography or visual recording and sentenced to two years in a state jail facility. He filed a notice of appeal on June 7, 2005, challenging his conviction. However, his sentence was imposed on March 9, 2005, making the statutory deadline for filing the notice of appeal April 8, 2005, or April 23, 2005, with a timely extension motion. As the notice of appeal was filed well beyond this period, it was deemed untimely. Consequently, the appellate court dismissed the purported appeal for want of jurisdiction, as a timely perfected appeal is a jurisdictional prerequisite.
