GlBSON V. ARMY 2 On October 26, 2010, an arbitrator dismissed Gibson’s grievance. Gibson admits that he received the arbitra- tor’s decision by February 10, 2011. Gibson’s petition for review was received by the court on June 13, 2011, 123 days later. A petition for review of an arbitrator's decision must be filed within 60 days of receipt of notice of the decision 5 U.S.C. §§ '7121(f), 7703(b)(1). The 60 day filing period is "statutory, mandatory, [and] jurisdictional." See M0nzo v. Dept. of Trcmsp., 735 F.2d 1335, 1336 (Fed. Cir. 198-4); see also Oja v. Dept. of the Arm,_'y, 405 F.3d 1349, 1360 (Fed. Cir. 2005) (“[c]ompliance with the filing deadline of 5 U.S.C. § 7703(b)(1) is a prerequisite to our exercise of jurisdiction”). Because this petition was not timely re- ceived by this court, it must be dismissed Bowles v. Ru,ssell, 551 U.S. 205 (2007) (the timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement that cannot be waived). Accordingly, IT ls ORDERED TiiAT: (1) The Army’s motions are granted. Gibson’s peti- tion is dismissed (2) Each side shall bear its own costs.
