Opinion filed February 7, 2020

Appeal from the Circuit Court for Orange County, John Marshall Kest, Judge.

Rock McGuigan, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellant/Cross Appellee.

Appellant.

EDWARDS, J.

After careful review, we affirm the lower court’s rulings with regard to the issues raised by the State in its appeal and by Christian Salgado in his cross-appeal. In addition to his cross-appeal, Mr. Salgado filed a separate notice of appeal; however, because that notice of appeal was filed more than thirty days after rendition of the order being appealed

2 it was untimely. Accordingly, we dismiss Mr. Salgado’s appeal as we lack jurisdiction. See Tillman v. State, 260 So. 2d 870, 871 (Fla. 1st DCA 1972). APPEAL AND CROSS-APPEAL AFFIRMED; SALGADO’S APPEAL DISMISSED.

HARRIS and TRAVER, JJ., concur.
