PER CURIAM:

USCA11 Case: 25-14298 Document: 7-1 Date Filed: 06/09/2026 Page: 2 of 2 2 Opinion of the Court 25-14298

This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. Quincetta Cargill, a federal prisoner proceeding pro se, ap- peals from the district court’s February 21, 2025 order dismissing her complaint without prejudice, for which judgment is deemed entered on July 21, 2025. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(7)(A)(ii); Fed. R. Civ. P. 58(a). The 60-day statutory deadline required Cargill to file a notice of appeal on or before September 19, 2025. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(b)(1); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B)(i). However, Cargill’s notice is not deemed filed, under the prison mailbox rule, until November 25, 2025. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(c)(1); Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266, 276 (1988); Daniels v. United States, 809 F.3d 588, 589 (11th Cir. 2015). Accordingly, the notice of appeal is untimely and cannot invoke our appellate jurisdiction. See Green v. Drug Enf’t Admin., 606 F.3d 1296, 1300 (11th Cir. 2010).

All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
