SSA v. CALDERON LOPEZ 2
to federal court. On November 4, 2021, the district court
remanded the case to state court. Mr. Calderon Lopez ap-
pealed that decision to the United States Court of Appeals
for the Ninth Circuit, which dismissed his appeal as frivo-
lous on July 14, 2022. That same day, the district court
entered an order rejecting a filing from Mr. Calderon
Lopez. On June 11, 2024, Mr. Calderon Lopez filed a notice
of appeal directed to this court from a “07/14/2022” deci-
sion. ECF No. 1-2 at 1.
To the extent Mr. Calderon Lopez seeks review of a de-
cision of the Ninth Circuit, we lack jurisdiction. See 28
U.S.C. § 1295. To the extent he instead seeks review of the
district court’s decision, “the timely filing of a notice of ap-
peal 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 appeal must generally be filed within 60
days after entry of final judgment when the case involves a
United States agency, 28 U.S.C. § 2107; Fed. R. App. P. 4.
Here, Mr. Calderon Lopez’s notice of appeal, filed nearly
two years after the July 2022 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, and all pending motions
are denied.
(2) Each party shall bear its own costs.
