The Importance of Timing
Criminal appeals have very strict time limits associated with filing and processing. If you fail to act in a timely fashion, you will forfeit your right to appeal.

Petitions for writ of habeas corpus must also be timely filed or they will be “time barred,” that is, the court will not review your petition for relief.
