February 16, 2021 Filing 6 Filed order (WILLIAM C. CANBY, SUSAN P. GRABER and MICHELLE T. FRIEDLAND) : A review of the record and the parties responses to the January 5, 2021 order to show cause demonstrates that this court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the December 23, 2020 notice of appeal was not filed within 30 days after the district courts judgment entered on November 9, 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); see also Fed. R. App. P. 26(b)(1) (court of appeals may not extend time to file a notice of appeal except as authorized in Fed. R. App. P. 4). Consequently, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
