    MATTIE LOMAX,
    Plaintiff-Appellant
    v.
    BAYVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC,
    Defendant-Appellee

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the
    Southern District of Florida in No. 1:11-cv-22219-MGC,
    Judge Marcia G. Cooke.
    ______________________
    ON MOTION
    ______________________
    PER CURIAM.
    ORDER
    Mattie Lomax moves to waive Public Access to Court
    Electronic Records (PACER) fees, ECF No. 4. We deny that
    request. And having now considered her response to this
    court’s June 2, 2023, order to show cause, we dismiss.
    “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case
    is a jurisdictional requirement,” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S.
    Case: 23-1902      Document: 7   Page: 2      Filed: 08/22/2023
    2                      LOMAX v. BAYVIEW LOAN SERVICING, LLC
    205, 214 (2007), and, in order to be timely, a notice of ap-
    peal must be filed within 30 days after entry of final judg-
    ment, 
    28 U.S.C. § 2107
    (a); Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). Here,
    Ms. Lomax filed her notice more than three and half years
    after the October 2019 order she identified in her notice of
    appeal. At least because of this untimeliness, we lack ju-
    risdiction over the appeal, and we cannot transfer under
    
    28 U.S.C. § 1631
     because the appeal would not be timely in
    any other court of appeals.
    Accordingly,
    IT IS ORDERED THAT:
    (1) The appeal is dismissed.
    (2) All pending motions are denied.
    (3) Each side shall bear its own costs.
