1. “Moreover, the law is that without the sentence, there is no final order. Without a final order, the appellate court lacks jurisdiction.... Although jurisdiction is not present in this court, we do have the authority, and the duty, to vacate the sentence which was handed down without jurisdiction by the district court----Therefore, we vacate the sentence and remand the cause to the district court for resentencing. Because we lack jurisdiction, we do not address Rieger’s claims that the trial court erred with respect to certain evidentiary matters.”

2. “It is apparent from our examination of the record that the certificate [of inmate status] containing the information . . . required by article III[(a) of the IAD] did not accompany Rieger’s request to the prosecutor or the court. Consequently, because Rieger’s request was not made in the manner required, it was not effective and did not trigger the 180-day period.”
