Per Curiam.
{¶ 1} We dismiss the appeal of appellant, Larry Groves, because although he challenges the court of appeals' September 2009 judgment dismissing his petition for a writ of mandamus, he did not file a timely appeal from that judgment. S.Ct.Prac.R. 2.2(A)(1)(a) (“To perfect an appeal from a court of appeals to the Supreme Court * * *, the appellant shall file a notice of appeal in the Supreme Court within forty-five days from the entry of the judgment being appealed”); State ex rel. Martin v. Ohio Adult Parole Auth., 124 Ohio St.3d 63, 2009-Ohio-6164, 918 N.E.2d 1005, ¶ 1. Neither the court of appeals' November 2009 entry striking Groves's initial notice of appeal, which was erroneously filed by him in the court of appeals instead of this court, nor the court of appeals' November 2009 entry denying his motion for reconsideration of its dismissal of the mandamus petition extended his time to appeal the court of appeals' September 2009 judgment dismissing his mandamus petition. Id.
Appeal dismissed.
PER CURIAM.
