PER CURIAM
Circuit Court for Greene County
No. 10CV575
The order from which the appellant, Jerry Burkes, seeks to appeal was entered on Monday, October 24, 2011. A notice of appeal was filed by the appellant on Monday, November 28, 2011, the 35th day following the entry of the trial court's order. Because the notice of appeal was not filed timely, we have no jurisdiction to consider this appeal. Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed.
Tenn. R. App. P. 3 Appeal as of Right; Appeal Dismissed
D. MICHAEL SWINEY, J., HERSCHEL P. FRANKS, P.J., and JOHN W. MCCLARTY, J. Jerry Burkes, Greeneville, Tennessee, Pro Se Appellant. Linda Thomas Woolsey, Greeneville, Tennessee, for the Appellee, Robin Lipski. Robert E. Cooper, Jr., Attorney General and Reporter, and Lindsey O. Appiah, Assistant Attorney General, for the Appellee, State of Tennessee.
MEMORANDUM OPINION
Our jurisdiction of a Tenn. R. App. P. 3 appeal as of right is dependent upon the timely filing of a notice of appeal. Albert v. Frye, 145 S.W.3d 526, 528 (Tenn. 2004). In the instant case, the day the relevant order was entered, i.e., October 24, 2011, is not counted in determining the last day of the 30-day period of time for filing of a notice of appeal. See Tenn. R. App. P. 21(a). Therefore, there were 7 days left in October and 23 days in November within which the Appellant could file his notice. Hence, the last day the notice could be timely filed was Wednesday, November 23, 2011. It follows that the notice of appeal filed November 28, 2011, was not timely filed. We have no jurisdiction to hear the appellant's appeal.
The appeal of Jerry Burkes is dismissed with costs on appeal taxed to him.
