Key legal question
Whether the first-instance court's transmission of the notice and file cured the late notice of appeal or prevented the appeal court from reviewing admissibility.
Extracted holding
No. Only the appellate court's procedural direction must examine admissibility; the first-instance court's transmission does not cure lateness.
Extracted reasoning
Under Art. 403 CPP, the appellate court decides on admissibility when lateness is alleged. The first-instance court is not the procedural direction of the appellate instance and has no duty to assess admissibility beforehand.
