Docket No. 8:25-cv-00682-TPB-NHA ____________________ Before JORDAN, NEWSOM, and KIDD, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdiction. USCA11 Case: 25-14511 Document: 11-1 Date Filed: 03/26/2026 Page: 2 of 2 2 Opinion of the Court 25-14511 Larome Deon Waiters appeals from the district court’s judgment denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to vacate, set aside, or correct his sentence. The district court entered its judgment on October 9, 2025. Waiters’s notice of appeal is deemed filed, under the prison mailbox rule, on December 10, 2025. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(c). Waiters had until December 8, 2025 to appeal the district court’s judgment. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(b); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B). His notice of appeal, filed on December 10, is thus untimely and cannot invoke our appellate jurisdiction. See Green v. Drug Enf’t Admin., 606 F.3d 1296, 1300 (11th Cir. 2010). All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
