Case: 15-30872 Document: 00513406986 Page: 1 Date Filed: 03/04/2016 IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT No. 15-30872 United States Court of Appeals Fifth Circuit FILED March 4, 2016 Lyle W. Cayce Clerk UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff-Appellee v. JOSEPH ST. PIERRE, Defendant-Appellant Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana USDC No. 2:11-CR-248 Before DAVIS, JONES, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: * Joseph St. Pierre, federal prisoner # 32181-034, was sentenced in February 2012 to imprisonment for 97 months after pleading guilty to receiving child pornography. St. Pierre filed a notice of appeal from the judgment in September 2015, more than three years after entry of judgment and well beyond the time for appealing and the time for extending the appeal period. See FED. R. APP. P. 4(b)(1)(A), (b)(4). St. Pierre’s appeal, which is far outside the time limit, is frivolous. See United States v. Leijano-Cruz, 473 F.3d Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4. * Case: 15-30872 Document: 00513406986 Page: 2 Date Filed: 03/04/2016 No. 15-30872 571, 574 (5th Cir. 2006). Consequently, the appeal is DISMISSED, see 5TH CIR. R. 42.2, and his motion for appointment of counsel is DENIED AS MOOT. 2
