In re Gonzalez CA4/3
Jose Gonzalez seeks relief from the failure to file a timely notice of appeal. The petition is granted.
Following a jury trial, Gonzalez was sentenced to 80 years to life. In his declaration, trial counsel states that after he advised Gonzalez of his right to appeal, Gonzalez indicated he wanted to appeal the conviction. According to counsel, he agreed to file a notice of appeal on Gonzalez’s behalf, but as a result of being immersed in a serious and complex trial, he inadvertently failed to file a notice of appeal within 60 days from the date of the judgment.
