(D.C. No. 2:07-CV-00657-TS)

(D. of Utah)

ORDER

Before BRISCOE, LUCERO, and TYMKOVICH, Circuit Judges.

This court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the notice of appeal

was filed out-of-time. 

Judgment was entered on December 11, 2009, and the notice of appeal,

with a certificate of service dated January 22, 2010, was filed on January 27.

In a civil case, in which the United States is not a party, a notice of appeal

must be filed within 30 days of entry of judgment. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(a) (a

notice of appeal in a civil matter must be filed within 30 days of entry of

judgment unless the United States is a party); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A) (same).

Because a timely notice of appeal in a civil case is both mandatory and

jurisdictional, see Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 209, 213 (2007), this appeal is

DISMISSED.
