JAMES JOHNSON,

    Appellant,

    v.

FLORIDA DEPARTMENT OF
CORRECTIONS,

    Appellee.
                 _____________________________


On appeal from the Circuit Court for Hamilton County.
Andrew J. Decker, III, Judge.

                        February 28, 2019


PER CURIAM.

    Upon consideration of Appellant’s response to the Court’s
order of January 14, 2019, the Court has determined that the
appeal is untimely.

     In order to timely invoke the Court’s appellate jurisdiction, a
notice of appeal must be filed within 30 days of rendition of the
order to be reviewed. Fla. R. App. P. 9.110(b). The thirtieth day
following rendition of the order on appeal was January 2, 2019.
Thus, the notice of appeal, filed on January 3, 2019, failed to
invoke the Court’s appellate jurisdiction in a timely manner.
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
ROBERTS, WETHERELL, and MAKAR, JJ., concur.

                _____________________________

    Not final until disposition of any timely and
    authorized motion under Fla. R. App. P. 9.330 or
    9.331.
