PER CURIAM: In 2015, Avery Terry pled guilty, pursuant to a written plea agreement, to interfering with commerce by robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 1951(a), using and brandishing a firearm during a crime of violence, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 924(c), and accessory after the fact to robbery, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 3. The district court sentenced Terry to a total of 181 months’ imprisonment. Terry appealed the judgment, and we affirmed. United States v. Terry, 788 F. App’x 933 (4th Cir. 2020).
On December 10, 2024, Terry filed another notice of appeal of the district court’s final judgment. However, in criminal cases, the defendant must file his notice of appeal within 14 days after the entry of judgment. Fed. R. App. P. 4(b)(1)(A). Because Terry’s notice of appeal was filed more than nine years after entry of the judgment, it is untimely.
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. See United States v. Oliver, 878 F.3d 120, 127-129 (4th Cir. 2017) (discussing situations in which this court will sua sponte dismiss untimely criminal appeals). We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
