Description
Defendant, Jimmy Reyes, was convicted of the crime of armed robbery, and sentenced November 4, 1965. The following day he filed a notice of appeal, and promptly filed a praecipe for the record. On November 8, 1966, defendant filed a paupers affidavit requesting free transcript and filing fee. The time for filing the transcript on appeal was extended to April 4, 1966, and on December 13, 1966, the time was again extended to January 15, 1967. On February 2, 1967, the district attorney moved the district court to dismiss the appeal for failure to timely file the transcript. Supreme Court Rule 14(2) (§ 21-2-1(14)(2), N.M.S.A.1953). The defendant responded to the motion asserting that the reason for failure to file the transcript within the time allowed by the extension was the inability of the court reporter to complete the record, and that counsel for defendant had no notice of such inability. The motion was granted and the appeal dismissed. The defendant has appealed from that order.
