What is Jurisdiction in Theft Case Appeal about?

This case concerns the appellate jurisdiction over a criminal case decided by the Caloocan City court. Rolando Ventura was convicted of simple theft by the city court. He appealed to the Court of First Instance of Rizal. The issue is whether the Court of First Instance or the Court of Appeals has appellate jurisdiction. The Supreme Court held that the Court of First Instance does not have appellate jurisdiction because the crime of frustrated qualified theft is punishable by more than 6 months imprisonment.
