Foster v. State

Indiana Supreme Court

Decided December 15, 1959

Indiana Supreme Court · decided 1959-12-15

Decided 1959-12-15

Per Curiam

¶1Petitioner has filed petition for writ of certiorari in this court which is obviously an attempted appeal seeking to review certain alleged errors in the trial court which he states convicted him of Inflicting a Personal Injury in the Commission of a Robbery.

¶2The appellate jurisdiction of this court to review judgments of lower courts is governed by the applicable rules of procedure and is dependent upon the filing of a transcript and assignment of errors, neither of which have been filed by petitioner. The certiorari petition filed by petitioner does not suffice to give this court jurisdiction of the cause either as a regular or belated appeal.

¶3As we have no jurisdiction to consider the petition, the same is dismissed.
