Description
Appellant, Carolyn Williams, was convicted by a jury of robbery, first degree, and armed criminal action and sentenced to
consecutive prison terms of ten years and three years, respectively. The trial court suspended execution of the ten-year sentence
for robbery and ordered that Williams be placed on probation for five years after serving the three-year sentence for armed
criminal action. Williams appealed to the Court of Appeals, Western District, which affirmed the judgment of conviction and
sentence. Although this Court accepted transfer to address the propriety of postponing commencement of Williams' term of probation
on the robbery count until she serves the sentence on the armed criminal action count, we now determine that we have no jurisdiction
to address that issue. The judgment is affirmed. The following facts are pertinent to this appeal: On July 3, 1991, about 2:00 a.m., Richard Scott was seated in his car using
a "drive up" telephone next to a service station. Karl Liebnitz was a passenger in Scott's car. Liebnitz was on crutches because
of a broken leg. As Scott was hanging up the telephone, Williams jumped into the back seat of the car and demanded money.
When Scott refused to comply, Williams dove into the front seat, threw the car into park, and attempted to remove the key
from the ignition. After a scuffle, Liebnitz ended up with the key.
