                  Appeal from the United States District Court
                      for the Southern District of Florida
                     D.C. Docket No. 1:15-cv-24114-JEM
                           ____________________

       Before BRANCH, GRANT, and LAGOA, Circuit Judges.
       PER CURIAM:
               This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic-
       tion. The 30-day statutory time limit required Michael Arrington
       to file a notice of appeal from the district court’s order entered on
       November 1, 2023 by December 1, 2023. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(a);
       Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). However, Arrington did not file his no-
       tice of appeal until December 4, 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) because Arring-
       ton did not move to extend or reopen the appeal period or indicate
       in his notice of appeal that he failed to receive formal notice of the
       entry of the order. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5) (providing that a party
USCA11 Case: 23-14010     Document: 16-1      Date Filed: 01/23/2024    Page: 3 of 3

       23-14010               Opinion of the Court                        3

       may move to extend the time for filing a notice of appeal within 30
       days of entry of final judgment); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6)(A) (provid-
       ing 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
       order). 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).
              No petition for rehearing may be filed unless it complies
       with the timing and other requirements of 11th Cir. R. 40-3 and all
       other applicable rules.
