Roger Stone on Thursday said he is appealing his case to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the D.C. Circuit, shortly before he could be called in to report to federal prison.

He and his attorney Seth Ginsberg filed the notice of appeal in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, saying he was appealing the judgment in his criminal case, his sentence and U.S. District Judge Amy Berman Jackson’s denial of Stone’s motion for a new trial.
