Narrative Opinion Summary
Eric M. Sanchez appeals a district court order from August 31, 2011. The Utah Court of Appeals addresses the appeal through a sua sponte motion for summary disposition, to which Sanchez does not object. The court dismisses the appeal due to lack of jurisdiction, as Sanchez filed his notice of appeal on October 3, 2011, which was beyond the thirty-day window mandated by Rule 4 of the Utah Rules of Appellate Procedure. The court cites precedent indicating that failure to file a timely notice results in jurisdictional limitations, necessitating dismissal. The judges, Gregory K. Orme, William A. Thorne Jr., and Michele M. Christiansen, unanimously agree on the dismissal.
