State of Arizona, Appellee v. Brady Whitman, Jr., Appellant

Summary

The court held that the phrase "entry of judgment and sentence" in Rule 31.3 refers to the oral pronouncement of sentence, not the later filing of the clerk's minute entry. Because Whitman filed his notice of appeal twenty-one days after sentencing, the notice was untimely, so the court vacated the court of appeals' opinion and dismissed the appeal.
