What is Appeal Dismissal: Wedington v. Maryland about?
Isiah Wedington, a Maryland inmate, appealed the dismissal of his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 petition in federal district court. However, Wedington filed an untimely notice of appeal and did not request an extension. The Fourth Circuit has no authority to construe a bare notice of appeal as a motion for an extension. As the court recently decided the dispositive issues authoritatively, it dismissed the appeal without oral argument for lack of jurisdiction.
