USA v. Dotz (May 8, 2006) Appeal from E.D. Michigan
-  http://www.ca6.uscourts.gov/opinions.pdf/06a0153p-06.pdf
-  Dotz pled guilty to possessing trifluoromenthylphenyl piperazine, a
Schedule I narcotic, with the intent to distribute, and to possessing
cocaine. The district court sentenced Dotz in January of 2005. Dotz
timely filed a motion to correct his sentence pursuant to Rule 35(a) of
the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, which the district court
denied. Although the initial period for filing a notice of appeal had
expired, Dotz later moved for an extension of time to file a notice of
appeal, claiming that his Rule 35 motion extended the initial filing
period and that he was entitled to an additional extension for excusable
neglect. The district court denied Dotz's motion. On appeal, Dotz
argues that the district court erred in failing to extend the time for
filing a notice of appeal. Judgment AFFIRMED.
