December, Noonan, who has changed his surname to Lattlay-Fottfoy, was jailed for nine-and-a-half years after he was found to have a handgun and five bullets in his car when he was stopped in Darlington.
He claims a man had planted the gun and ammunition in his car.
He is appealing after a jury at Teesside Crown Court convicted him of three firearms offences.
Domenyk Lattlay-Fottfoy, is the brother of murdered Manchester hardman Desmond Noonan, who was stabbed to death earlier this year also a member of the Noonans gangland family, was stopped in a Jaguar car by police near Darlington in May and found with a handgun and five .357 Magnum bullets.
A jury at Teesside Crown Court found the 41-year-old guilty of possession of a firearm, possessing a firearm without a certificate and having a firearm and ammunition in his possession.
Both brothers had appeared in a controversial television documentary about the Manchester criminal underworld in which Desmond hinted he was responsible for 27 murders.
