PER CURIAM:
J. L. Cox, Texas prisoner # 732619, moves this court for authorization to proceed in forma pauperis (IFP) on appeal from the district court’s order granting summary judgment to the defendants and dismissing his civil rights suit. 42 U.S.C. § 1983. By moving to proceed IFP in this court, Cox challenges the district court’s certification that his appeal is not taken in good faith. See Baugh v. Taylor, 117 F.3d 197, 202 (5th Cir. 1997).
Cox filed his appeal more than 100 days after the district court entered judgment in favor of the defendants and dismissing the matter. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1) (setting a 30-day period for noticing an appeal). Prior to that time, Cox did not seek to enlarge the time to appeal, and he does not contend that he did not receive notice of the district court’s judgment. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5)(A), (a)(6). Because this court lacks jurisdiction over the untimely appeal, see Fed. R. App. P. 4(a); In re Deepwater Horizon, 785 F.3d 1003, 1009 (5th Cir. 2015), the appeal does not involve legal points arguable on their merits and Cox’s motion to proceed IFP on appeal is therefore DENIED. Howard v. King, 707 F.2d 215, 220 (5th Cir. 1983). His untimely appeal is DISMISSED FOR LACK OF JURISDICTION. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1); Deepwater Horizon, 785 F.3d at 1009.
Pursuant to 5th Cíe. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
