Opinion
23400.
August 28, 2000.
Appeal from the First Circuit Court (Cr. No. 99-2002).
MOON, C.J., LEVINSON, NAKAYAMA, RAMIL, and ACOBA, JJ.
ORDER DISMISSING APPEAL
Upon review of the record, it appears that Appellant's April 16, 2000 letter to the clerk of the supreme court was treated and filed as a notice of appeal. However, sentence has not been imposed and judgment has not been entered in Cr. No. 99-2002. Thus, this appeal is premature and we lack jurisdiction. HRS § 641-11. Therefore,
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that this appeal is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction.
