In a criminal appeal, the appellant filed a factum that failed to comply with Criminal Proceedings Rule 40.11(5)(b).
The court found the summary of facts improperly consisted of transcript excerpts rather than a concise summary of relevant facts, and the issues section did not provide legal argument or authorities supporting the claim that the sentence was unfit.
As a result, the court declined to proceed with assigning a hearing estimate.
The appellant was ordered to serve and file a compliant replacement factum by a specified date, failing which the matter would be scheduled for a motion to determine whether the appeal should be dismissed for want of prosecution.
