• holding that a defendant need only show that their attorney incompetently failed to preserve their right to appeal in order for that right to be automatically restored
• although the defendant's family retained counsel after sentencing, appointed trial counsel did not attempt to formally withdraw, as required, and had no authority to unilaterally withdraw from representation; thus, trial counsel had an ongoing duty toward his client
