ERIC MARTIN JARRETT, APPELLANT

3d Cir. | 1971-03-25
No. 19223
439 F.2d 1135 United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit (1971) Positive Treatment
Cited by 6 cases

Opinion of the Court
PER CURIAM:

PER CURIAM:

After a trial before the district court sitting without a jury, the appellant was found guilty of willfully refusing to submit to induction under the Universal Military Training and Service Act. On June 30, 1970 the district court denied a motion for a new trial. This appeal followed. However, no sentence has yet been imposed pursuant to the conviction.

Neither the order finding the accused guilty nor the order denying a new trial is an appealable final order absent any imposition of sentence. United States v. Knight, 3d Cir. 1947, 162 F. 2d 809. “To create finality it was necessary that petitioner’s conviction should be followed by sentence. * * *” Berman v. United States, 1937, 302 U.S. 211, 212, 58 S.Ct. 164, 166, 82 L.Ed. 204.

This appeal will be dismissed for want of an appealable order.
