City of Bozeman v. King
Annotate this CaseDefendant was convicted of disorderly conduct in the Bozeman Municipal Court. Defendant was sentenced to pay a $100 fine and $135 in surcharges and fees. Defendant appealed his sentence to the district court, asserting eight grounds for appeal. The district court declined appellate jurisdiction and remanded the matter to the municipal court for enforcement of Defendant’s sentence, determining that Defendant’s $100 fine did not satisfy the threshold amounts for appellate jurisdiction set forth in the applicable rules or statutes and that it was unlikely that Defendant would prevail on any of the issues raised. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding that the district court’s denial of Defendant’s motion to appeal did not constitute an abuse of discretion or error.
