Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Middle District of Florida
D.C. Docket No. 3:25-cv-00762-WWB-MCR
____________________
Before BRANCH, GRANT, and LUCK, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic-
tion. The 30-day statutory deadline required Clarence McKinney,
a state prisoner proceeding pro se, to file a notice of appeal from

2 Opinion of the Court 25-13355
the district court’s August 19, 2025 final order and judgment on or
before September 18, 2025. See 28 U.S.C. § 2107(a); Fed. R. App. P.
4(a)(1)(A). However, McKinney’s notice of appeal was not deemed
filed, under the prison mailbox rule, until September 19, 2025. See
Fed. R. App. P. 4(c)(1); Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266, 276 (1988).
Accordingly, the notice of appeal is 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.
