This case presents question as to whether Appellate Court properly dismissed on jurisdictional grounds defendant’s appeal of trial court order denying his pro se motion to correct mittimus that sought additional days of presentence credit, where defendant had failed to file said motion within 30 days of his sentencing, and where defendant had abandoned said issue on appeal and raised for first time on appeal issue as to whether certain fines and fees had been properly assessed. Appellate Court found that dismissal of appeal was appropriate because denial of defendant’s motion to correct mittimus was not appealable order under instant factual setting, and because defendant had failed to file motion to correct mittimus within 30 days as required under Rule 604(d).
