People v. Barnes

143 A.D.2d 837, 533 N.Y.S.2d 383, 1988 N.Y. App. Div. LEXIS 10188
Appellate Division of the Supreme Court of the State of New York·Decided October 17, 1988·Published·Cited by 6 cases

Opinion

Appeal by the defendant, as limited by her motion, from a sentence of the County Court, Westchester County (Cowhey, J.), imposed June 10,1987.

Ordered that the appeal is dismissed.

The defendant failed to appear for a scheduled court date, whereupon a warrant was issued for her arrest. Her lawyer has been unable to contact her and she is currently a fugitive from justice. Since the defendant is unavailable to obey the [838] mandate of the court, the appeal is dismissed (see, People v Southerland, 136 AD2d 662; People v Flemming, 104 AD2d 1048). Mollen, P. J., Brown, Lawrence and Weinstein, JJ., concur.
