On May 25, 2021, the United States District Court for

filed a notice of appeal directed to this court from a decision
entered “05/25/2021” in the district court action. ECF No.
1-2 at 1.

CALDERON LOPEZ v. O’ MALLEY 2
“[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case
is a jurisdictional requirement,” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S.
205, 214 (2007), and, in order to be timely, a notice of ap-
peal must generally be filed within 60 days after entry of
final judgment when the case involves United States offic-
ers, 28 U.S.C. § 2107; Fed. R. App. P. 4. Here, Mr. Calderon
Lopez’s notice of appeal, filed more than three years after
the district court’s decision, is clearly untimely. For at
least this reason, we and any other court of appeals lack
jurisdiction.
Accordingly,
I T I S O RDERED T HAT :
(1) The appeal is dismissed.
(2) Each party shall bear its own costs.
