In federal court a notice of appeal must be filed within ten days after judgment (your sentencing order) is entered, or you lose that right.

You can miss defenses and say the wrong things if you are not represented by an advocate as your attorney. I observe that you might be better off with an attorney doing your appeal.

Good luck to you.

God bless.
