When the defendant appears in court for judgment, in cases of felony, he must be informed of the nature of the charge against him contained in the information and of the pronouncement of judgment, and must be asked whether he has any legal cause to show why sentence should not be imposed on him. If no such legal cause exists the court shall pronounce sentence. If the defendant is not represented by counsel, the court shall inform him of his right to appeal, and the clerk at the request of the defendant, shall prepare and file a notice of appeal pursuant to the provisions of these rules.
