¶1 DECISION
¶2 T1 Jacob Mut Bolith seeks to appeal the district court's September 80, 2011 order dismissing his petition for post-conviction relief, This matter is before the court on a sua sponte motion for summary disposition for lack of jurisdiction. We dismiss the appeal.
¶3 T2 Rule 4 of the Utah Rules of Appellate Procedure requires that a notice of appeal be filed within thirty days of the entry of the *875 final order or judgment appealed. See Utah R.App. P. 4(a). If a notice of appeal is not timely filed, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider the appeal. See Serrato v. Utah Transit Auth., 2000 UT App 299, ¶ 7, 13 P.3d 616. If the court lacks jurisdiction over an appeal, it has only the authority to dismiss the appeal. See Varian-Eimac, Inc. v. Lamoreaux, 767 P.2d 569, 570 (Utah Ct.App.1989).
