The criminal justice authority that has issued a decision shall note the date on which it becomes legally binding in the files or in the judgment.
If the parties have been notified that an appellate remedy has been requested, they shall also be notified of the date on which the judgment becomes legally binding.
If there is a dispute over whether or when a decision has become legally binding, the authority that has issued the decision shall rule on the matter.
An Article 393 appeal may be filed against the ruling on the legally binding effect of the decision.
