Appellate Practice: Motion to Vacate Sentence-Finality of Judgment-Court Authority
Staff Report//December 26, 2019
Where a criminal defendant challenged the denial of her motion to vacate, set aside or correct judgment and sentence after an evidentiary hearing, the motion court’s order denying relief addressed only three of her four claims, so the judgment was not final, and the court lacked authority to review.
Appeal is dismissed.
