"SEC. 43. Appeals.—From all final judgments of the Court of First Instance or courts of similar jurisdiction, and in all cases in which the law now provides for appeals from said courts, an appeal may be taken to the Supreme Court as hereinafter prescribed. The convicted party may appeal from any final judgment of a justice of the peace in a criminal cause to the Court of First Instance by filing a notice of appeal with such justice within fifteen days after the entry of judgment. Upon such notice being so filed, the justice shall forward to the Court of First Instance all original papers and a transcript of all docket entries in the cause, and the provincial fiscal shall thereupon take charge of the cause in behalf of the prosecution: Provided, however, That the period of fifteen days within which the accused may file his notice of appeal either from a judgment of a justice of the peace court or from a judgment of a Court of First Instance shall be interrupted from the time a motion for new trial is filed."
