    The State of Ohio, Appellee, v. Hatfield, Appellant.
    (No. 76-332
    Decided November 24, 1976.)
    
      Mr. Michael Nolan, prosecuting attorney, and Mr. Michael Ward, for appellee.
    
      Messrs. Jones & Ball, Mr. Claire M. Ball, Jr., and Mr. Gregory W. Black, for appellant.
   Per Gwiam.

In State v. Hughes (1975), 41 Ohio St. 2d 208, 324 N. E. 2d 731, this court held that App. R. 4(B) is invalid insofar as it “enlarges the statutory right of. appeal provided by R. C. 2945.67 through 2945.70, and abridges the right of appellate courts to exercise their discretion in allowing appeals * * In State v. Wallace (1975), 43 Ohio St. 2d 1, 330 N. E. 2d 697, the court held that “[a] motion for leave to appeal by the state in a criminal case shall be governed by the procedural requirements of App. R. 5 and the time requirements of App. R. 4(B).”

The record in this ease discloses that the only procedural steps taken by the prosecution to perfect its appeal were the filing of a notice of appeal and of a certification under Crim. R. 12(J). Under this court’s holdings in Hughes and Wallace, this procedure was insufficient to invoke the jurisdiction of the Court of Appeals, and that court’s judgment must accordingly be reversed.

Judgment reversed.
