IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

 HARVEY EUGENE LARSON,

Plaintiff, No. 2:06-cv-1413 ALA P

vs.

D.L. RUNNELS, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

____________________________/

Plaintiff Harvey Eugene Larson is a state prisoner who is proceeding pro se and in forma

pauperis with a civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On January 25, 2008, this Court

granted Defendants’ motion for summary judgment and closed the matter. 

On February 25, 2008, Mr. Larson filed a document entitled “Notice of Appeal and

Extension of Time to File Appeal” (Doc. 94). However, the Notice of Appeal was timely filed

on February 25, 2008, within 30 days after judgment was entered (Doc. 95). See Fed. R. App. P.

4(a) (providing that the notice of appeal “must be filed with the district court clerk within 30

days after the judgment or order appealed from is entered”); Fed. R. App. P. 4(c)(1) (providing

that if “an inmate confined in an institution files a notice of appeal . . . the notice is timely if it is

deposited in the institution’s internal mail system on or before the last day for filing”). 

Therefore, to the extent that Mr. Larson is requesting an extension of time to file a notice

of appeal, his request is DENIED as moot.
