Filing 5
ORDER: A preliminary review of the short record suggests this appeal may be untimely. Appellant shall file, on or before July 28, 2026, a brief memorandum stating why this appeal should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant may file, with the memorandum, a notarized statement or a declaration (in compliance with 28 U.S.C. 1746) setting forth the date the notice of appeal was deposited in the prisons internal mail system and stating whether first class postage was prepaid. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(c). Or he may submit a notarized statement or a declaration under penalty of perjury (in compliance with 28 U.S.C. 1746) setting forth the date he gave the notice of appeal to prison staff to file electronically. See Taylor v. Brown, 787 F.3d 851, 85859 (7th Cir. 2015). A motion for voluntary dismissal under Rule 42(b) of the Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure will satisfy this requirement.
