APPEAL FROM THE PULASKI COUNTY
CIRCUIT COURT,
[NO. CV2006-9380]
V.
SHAWN D. DEBOER and SNL
DISTRIBUTION SERVICES CORP.
APPELLEES
HONORABLE TIMOTHY DAVIS
FOX, JUDGE
APPEAL DISMISSED
M. MICHAEL KINARD, Judge
This appeal stems from a jury trial on claims arising out of a traffic accident.
We have no jurisdiction to consider the appeal; therefore, the appeal is dismissed.
Arkansas Rule of Appellate Procedure-Civil 3(e) sets forth what must be
contained in a valid notice of appeal. Rule 3(e) requires, among other things, that
a notice of appeal designate the judgment, decree, order or part thereof appealed
from and designate the contents of the record on appeal. Appellants have filed three
separate notices of appeal, none of which contain the above required elements under
Rule 3(e). An appellant must file a valid notice of appeal as a prerequisite to this
court’s exercise of appellate jurisdiction over appellant’s case. See Schaeffer v. City of
Russellville, 52 Ark. App. 184, 916 S.W.2d 134 (1996); Glover v. Langford, 49 Ark.
App. 30, 894 S.W.2d 959 (1995). Because no valid, timely notice of appeal has
been filed in this case, the appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
Appeal dismissed.
V AUGHT, C.J., and G LADWIN, J., agree.
