      2                      Opinion of the Court                 23-13812

                 Appeal from the United States District Court
                     for the Southern District of Florida
                      D.C. Docket No. 0:22-cv-60601-RS
                          ____________________

      Before ROSENBAUM, BRANCH, and LUCK, Circuit Judges.
       PER CURIAM:
             This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic-
      tion. Frantz Germain appeals the district court’s March 10, 2023
      order dismissing his case. Because the district court did not set
      forth a judgment on a separate document, judgment was deemed
      entered 150 days later, or on August 7, 2023. Germain had 30 days
      from that date to file his notice of appeal, or until September 6,
      2023. Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(7)(A)(ii). However, Germain did not file
      his notice of appeal until November 2, 2023.
              Further, there is no basis in the record for relief under Fed-
      eral Rules of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5) or 4(a)(6). See Fed. R.
      App. P. 4(a)(5) (providing that a party may move to extend the time
      for filing a notice of appeal within 30 days of entry of final order),
      4(a)(6)(A) (providing that the court may reopen the time to file an
      appeal for a period of 14 days where a party does not receive notice
      of the entry of the judgment). Accordingly, the notice of appeal is
      untimely and cannot invoke our appellate jurisdiction. See Hamer
      v. Neighborhood Hous. Servs. of Chi., 138 S. Ct. 13, 21 (2017).
