STATE OF OHIO, CASE NOS. 2023-L-016 CITY OF PAINESVILLE, 2023-L-017 2023-L-026 Plaintiff-Appellee, Criminal Appeals from the - vs - Painesville Municipal Court

KAMERON CHARLES OSCAR, Trial Court Nos. 2022 CRB 01178 Defendant-Appellant. 2022 CRB 01247A 2022 CRB 01247B

MEMORANDUM OPINION

Decided: March 13, 2023 Judgment: Appeals dismissed

Ron M. Graham, Painesville City Prosecutor, 521 Malvern Drive, Painesville, OH 44077 (For Plaintiff-Appellee).

Kameron Charles Oscar, pro se, 142 Turner Drive, Chardon, OH 44024 (Defendant- Appellant).

MATT LYNCH, J.

{¶1} On February 6, 2023, appellant, Kameron C. Oscar, pro se, filed a “Letter

of Intent to Appeal Convictions,” construed as a notice of appeal, in the appeals. A review

of the dockets reflect that on October 28, 2022, after entering a plea of guilty to violating

a protection order, the trial court sentenced appellant to serve 120 days, concurrently with

his common pleas cases, in the Lake County Jail. {¶2} Timely notices of appeal from the October 28, 2022 entries were due no

later than November 28, 2022, which was not a holiday or weekend. The appeals are

untimely by over two months.

{¶3} “* * * [A] party who wishes to appeal from an order that is final upon its entry

shall file the notice of appeal required by App.R. 3 within 30 days of that entry.” App.R.

4(A)(1).

{¶4} “(1) After the expiration of the thirty day period provided by App.R. 4(A) for

the filing of a notice of appeal as of right, an appeal may be taken by a defendant with

leave of the court to which the appeal is taken in the following classes of cases:

{¶5} “(a) Criminal proceedings; * * *

{¶6} “(2) A motion for leave to appeal shall be filed with the court of appeals and

shall set forth the reasons for the failure of the appellant to perfect an appeal as of right.

* * *.” App.R. 5(A).

{¶7} Appellant has neither complied with the thirty-day rule set forth in App.R.

4(A)(1) nor sought leave to appeal under App.R. 5(A). Thus, this court is without

jurisdiction to consider his appeals. Appellant has a remedy of filing an untimely criminal

appeal under App.R. 5(A).

{¶8} Appeals dismissed, sua sponte, as untimely.
