    Appeal from the United States District Court
    for the Northern District of Alabama
    D.C. Docket No. 4:20-cv-01176-CLM-NAD
    ____________________
    Before JORDAN, NEWSOM, and BRASHER, Circuit Judges.
    PER CURIAM:
    This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic-
    tion. The statutory time limit required William Walker to file a no-
    tice of appeal from the district court’s August 29, 2022 judgment by
    December 14, 2022, which was 30 days after the district court dis-
    posed of Walker’s motion challenging the judgment under Federal
    Rule of Civil Procedure 59(e). See 
    28 U.S.C. § 2107
    (a); Fed. R. App.
    P. 4(a)(1)(A), (4)(A). However, Walker did not file his notice of ap-
    peal until August 29, 2023. See Houston v. Lack, 
    487 U.S. 266
    , 276
    (1988).
    Additionally, there is no basis in the record for relief under
    Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure 4(a)(5) or 4(a)(6). Accord-
    ingly, the notice of appeal is untimely and cannot invoke our ap-
    pellate jurisdiction. See Green v. Drug Enf’t Admin., 
    606 F.3d 1296
    ,
    USCA11 Case: 23-12937     Document: 15-1      Date Filed: 11/03/2023    Page: 3 of 3
    23-12937               Opinion of the Court                        3
    1300 (11th Cir. 2010) (noting that the timely filing of a notice of
    appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement, and we cannot
    entertain an appeal that is out of time).
    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.
