Case Number F083901
| Date | Description | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 02/09/2022 | Notice of appeal lodged/received (criminal). | appeals in pro per from 1/28/22 denial of motion to strike/modify restitution; request in NOA for appointed counsel; no copy to CCAP due to appealability issue |
| 02/09/2022 | Notice to reporter to prepare transcript. | sent to ctrr Delsid on 2/8/22 |
| 02/16/2022 | Order filed. | This court is considering dismissing the above entitled appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction. Appellant seeks to appeal from an order, filed on January 28, 2022, denying a request to modify restitution fines which were imposed on March 20, 2007. Only postjudgment orders affecting the substantial rights of the party are appealable to this court. (Pen. Code, § 1237, subd. (b).) Where the superior court never had jurisdiction to a modify a sentence, its orders denying such a request do not affect a party's substantial rights. (People v. Mendez (2012) 209 Cal.App.4th 32, 34, fn. 1; People v. Turrin (2009) 176 Cal.App.4th 1200, 1207-1208.) Therefore, it does not appear that the Fresno County Superior Court's order is an appealable postjudgment order affecting appellant's substantial rights. Appellant may file, within 30 days from the date of this order, a letter brief with citation to appropriate legal authority establishing a statutory basis to appeal from the January 28, 2022, order. Appellant's failure to timely respond will be deemed agreement that the appeal should be dismissed. Briefing is stayed pending further order of this court. |
| 03/02/2022 | Letter brief filed. | Defendant and Appellant: Timothy Craig Pro Per pursuant to the order filed 2/16/22 |
| 03/16/2022 | Clerk's transcript filed. | C1,37 pages |
| 03/16/2022 | Filed declaration of: | I declare, under penalty of perjury, that, to the best of my knowledge, no prepared transcripts are contained within the file for the March 20, 2007 hearing, as reported by Enedelia Delsid. Due to the age of the case, any court reporter notes needed to prepare the aforementioned transcripts have been destroyed, pursuant to Government Code section 69955(e). I declare under penalty of perjury, under the laws of the State of California, that the foregoing is true and correct and that this declaration was executed on 8th day of February, 2022, at Fresno, California. |
| 03/16/2022 | Filed proof of service. | for the record filed 3/16/22 |
| 03/17/2022 | Dismissal order filed. | On February 7, 2022, appellant filed a notice of appeal, purporting to appeal the Fresno Superior Court's postjudgment order denying his motion to modify his restitution fine. The fine was imposed on March 20, 2007. On February 16, 2022, this court issued an order informing appellant the court was considering dismissing the appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction and providing appellant with an opportunity to brief the matter. Appellant subsequently filed a letter brief in response to this court's order arguing that he lacked the ability to pay the fine. Upon review of the record, this court finds that the January 28, 2022, order is not a postjudgment order affecting appellant's substantial rights. (Pen. Code, § 1237, subd. (b); People v. Turrin (2009) 176 Cal.App.4th 1200.) Therefore, the appeal is dismissed. |
