Date Filed Document Text
September 17, 2020 Filing 8 Filed order (DIARMUID F. O'SCANNLAIN, JOHNNIE B. RAWLINSON and MORGAN B. CHRISTEN) A review of the record and appellants response to the August 5, 2020 order to show cause demonstrates that this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the notice of appeal, served on July 27, 2020 and filed on July 31, 2020, was not filed or delivered to prison officials within 30 days after the district courts judgment entered on June 1, 2020. See 28 U.S.C. 2107(a); United States v. Sadler, 480 F.3d 932, 937 (9th Cir. 2007) (requirement of timely notice of appeal is jurisdictional); Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205 (2007) (court lacks authority to create equitable exceptions to jurisdictional requirement of timely notice of appeal). Consequently, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. All pending motion [11828088] (JPD) [Entered: 09/17/2020 03:31 PM]

Appellants notice of appeal was delivered to prison officials on July 27, 2020, and received by the district court on July 31, 2020.

See 28 U.S.C. 2107(a); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A), 4(c); United States v. Sadler, 480 F.3d 932, 937 (9th Cir. 2007) (requirement of timely notice of appeal is jurisdictional); Houston v.
