In Sarah Boone's latest letter to the court, she is inquiring about the status of her appeal and her court-appointed appellate attorney. She states that her attorney sent one introductory message in February 2025 and has not responded to her five inmate messages, two handwritten letters, or attempts by nine third-party representatives.
Boone says her appeal is in jeopardy because an order was issued on June 13, 2025, requiring an initial brief within 20 days, or her appeal may be dismissed due to lack of communication from her attorney. However, there was a third extension granted on the appeal. She argues that her attorney's failure to perform duties or communicate cannot be held against her and that dismissal would deny her due process and effective assistance of counsel.
The trial court judge cannot force the appellate attorney to communicate and that appeals typically take a long time, with minimal client input needed since the brief is based on the record. There might be a desire for Boone to control her lawyer, which is often not how the attorney-client relationship works in appellate cases.
