11. The Metropolitan Trial Court (MeTC) convicted Ivanka of theft and imposed upon her the indeterminate penalty of one year and eight months, as minimum, to three years, six months and 21 days, as maximum. Ivanka timely filed a notice of appeal. The MeTC then transmitted the records of the criminal case to the Regional Trial Court (RTC). Thereafter, the RTC directed Ivanka to file a memorandum of appeal. However, Ivanka failed to submit her memorandum despite notice. The RTC then dismissed Ivanka’s appeal for failure to file the required memorandum. Did the RTC properly dismiss Ivanka’s appeal for failure to file the required memorandum? Explain.
