2 Opinion of the Court 25-12645
Before BRANCH, GRANT, and LAGOA, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. The day after filing the complaint that initiated this action, Felissa Grissett, pro se, filed a notice of appeal. The district court had not yet entered any order. The notice appears to complain of the assigned district judge and of Grissett’s lack of e-filing access. The court later entered an order and judgment dismissing the ac- tion. We lack jurisdiction over this appeal because the notice of appeal was filed before the district court entered or announced the final order and judgment. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (providing that ap- pellate jurisdiction is generally limited to final decisions of the dis- trict courts); Fed. R. App. P. 3(c)(1)(B) (providing that a notice of appeal must designate the judgment or appealable order from which the appeal is taken); Bogle v. Orange Cnty. Bd. of Cnty. Comm’rs, 162 F.3d 653, 661 (11th Cir. 1998) (explaining that a notice of appeal is ineffective to appeal a contemplated future order or judgment that does not exist at the time the notice of appeal is filed, unless the decision or order was already announced).
