Counterman, 475 So.2d 336, 340 (La.1985) (Out-of-time appeal may be appropriate in cases in which either “the defendant was not substantially notified at sentencing of his right to appeal or those in which the defense attorney was at fault in failing to file or perfect a timely appeal.”) (emphasis added); see also State v. Guillory, 99-0400 (La.7/2/99), 745 So.2d 627.
