CR-08-99] V. HONORABLE JERRY D. RAMEY, JUDGE STATE OF ARKANSAS APPELLEE REBRIEFING ORDERED JOHN B. ROBBINS, Judge Appellant Matthew Hammonds was convicted by a jury of abuse of a corpse and was sentenced to six years in prison. On appeal, Mr. Hammonds challenges the sufficiency of the evidence to support his conviction, and also argues that the trial court erred in instructing the jury. However, in violation of Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(a)(8), appellants addendum does not contain a timely notice of appeal. Pursuant to Ark. Sup. Ct. R. 4-2(b)(3), this court finds that the addendum is insufficient, and we order appellant to submit a substituted brief that contains a revised addendum that includes his notice of appeal. See Tillman v. State, 363 Ark. 309, 213 S.W.3d 626 (2005). Appellant is directed to file the substituted brief within fifteen days from the entry of this order. Pursuant to Rule 4-2(b)(3), if appellant fails to file a complying brief
