Case No. 990736-CA

F I L E D
March 9, 2000
  2000 UT App 66 -----

Third District, Salt Lake Department
The Honorable Stephen L. Henriod

Attorneys:
Robert B. Breeze, Salt Lake City, for Appellant
Jeanne Robison, Salt Lake City, for Appellee

-----

Before Judges Bench, Davis, and Orme.

PER CURIAM:

Dean Mark Williamson appeals from a judgment of criminal contempt. Following the hearing at which the court found Williamson in contempt, the clerk prepared an unsigned minute entry stating Williamson was found in contempt of court and sentenced to a thirty day commitment. The record contains a signed "Commitment After Judgment"; however, it contains no signed, final judgment on the contempt ruling signed by the court. Accordingly, the appeal from the contempt judgment must be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

The appeal is dismissed without prejudice to a timely appeal filed after entry of a final appealable judgment.
