IN THE DISTRICT COURT OF APPEAL FIRST DISTRICT, STATE OF FLORIDA MICHELLE DALLAS, NOT FINAL UNTIL TIME EXPIRES TO FILE MOTION FOR REHEARING AND Appellant, DISPOSITION THEREOF IF FILED v. CASE NO. 1D15-0247 REEMPLOYMENT ASSISTANCE APPEALS COMMISSION AND OASIS HR SOLUTION II, Appellees. _____________________________/ Opinion filed May 27, 2015. An appeal from an order of the Reemployment Assistance Appeals Commission. Frank E. Brown, Chairman. Michelle Dallas, pro se, Appellant. Norman A. Blessing, General Counsel, Reemployment Assistance Appeals Commission, Tallahassee, for Appellee (no appearance). PER CURIAM. The Court has determined that appellant’s notice of appeal failed to invoke its appellate jurisdiction in a timely manner. To be timely, a notice of appeal must be filed with the appropriate court within 30 days of rendition of the order on appeal. Fla. R. App. P. 9.110(b). Merely mailing the notice or having the notice placed in a post office box within the required time period is not sufficient. Raysor v. Raysor,706 So. 2d 400
, 401 (Fla. 1st DCA 1998). Further, the filing of a notice of appeal is jurisdictional. Florida courts are required to dismiss an appeal if the notice is not filed within the applicable time limit. See Miami-Dade County v. Peart,843 So. 2d 363
(Fla. 3d DCA 2003). Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed. BENTON, CLARK, and MAKAR, JJ., CONCUR. 2
