IN THE COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE STATE OF MISSISSIPPI

ANTYONY GERLAD FOX APPELLANT

v. NO. 2022-TS-00988-COA

STATE OF MISSISSIPPI APPELLEE

APPELLANT’S MOTION TO EXPEDITE MANDATE

On January 30, 2024, the Court of Appeals reversed and rendered Anthony Gerald Fox’s

conviction. Mr. Fox is currently incarcerated. The court’s judgment takes effect when the mandate

is issued. The Court of Appeal’s mandate shall issue twenty-one (21) days after the entry of

judgment unless the time is shortened or enlarged by order. The timely filing of a motion for

rehearing will stay the mandate until disposition of the motion. Miss. R. App. P. 41.

The State, specifically the Mississippi Attorney General, is not filing a motion for

rehearing, nor does it object to the Appellant’s request to expedite the twenty-one (21) day

mandate. Each day that passes with Mr. Fox incarcerated is another day of travesty by allowing a

known, innocent man to remain behind bars. Mr. Fox respectfully requests this Court to expedite

the issuance of the mandate to allow him to be released and to regain his life, liberty, and freedom

once again.

Respectfully submitted,

ANTHONY GERALD FOX
