Interest of Disbrow

Filed 11/9/10 by Clerk of Supreme Court IN THE SUPREME COURT STATE OF NORTH DAKOTA 2010 ND 204 State of North Dakota, Plaintiff and Appellee v. Robert Louis Johnson, Defendant and Appellant No. 20100135 Appeal from the District Court of Burleigh County, South Central Judicial District, the Honorable Bruce A. Romanick, Judge. AFFIRMED. Per Curiam. Lloyd C. Suhr (on brief), Assistant State’s Attorney, 514 East Thayer Avenue, Bismarck, ND 58501, for plaintiff and appellee. Carey A. Goetz (argued), P.O. Box 1695, Bismarck, ND 58502-1695, for defendant and appellant. State v. Johnson No. 20100135 Per Curiam. [¶1] Robert Louis Johnson appealed a district court order denying his motion to extend the time to file his notice of appeal. Johnson argues the district court abused its discretion when it failed to hold the combination of his limited capacity and his self-represented status amounted to excusable neglect. Johnson’s neglect is not excusable. See Leftbear v. State , 2007 ND 14, 727 N.W.2d 252. We affirm the district court’s order under N.D.R.App.P 35.1(a)(4). [¶2] Gerald W. VandeWalle, C.J. Dale V.
