____________________ Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida D.C. Docket No. 3:20-cv-00890-MMH-PDB USCA11 Case: 23-14165 Document: 11-1 Date Filed: 03/06/2024 Page: 2 of 2

2 Opinion of the Court 23-14165 ____________________ Before ROSENBAUM, NEWSOM, and LUCK, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. Dalvin Denson, proceeding pro se, filed a petition pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254, which the district court denied in a final judg- ment. Denson timely filed a motion that the district court con- strued as a motion for an extension of time to appeal from the final judgment pursuant to Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5).

The district court granted an extension, requiring Denson to file a notice of appeal by November 24, 2023. However, Denson did not file a notice of appeal until December 20, 2023.

Denson’s notice of appeal cannot invoke our jurisdiction be- cause it was not filed by the extended deadline to appeal. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(c); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5)(A); Harris v. Ballard, 158 F.3d 1164, 1166 (11th Cir. 1998).

No petition for rehearing may be filed unless it complies with the timing and other requirements of 11th Cir. R. 40-3 and all other applicable rules.
