On Certiorari to the Utah Court of Appeals
PER CURIAM:
¶1
This matter is before the court upon a petition for a
writ of certiorari, filed on August 1, 2005.
¶2
IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, pursuant to rule 45 of the Utah
Rules of Appellate Procedure, the petition for writ of certiorari
is granted and summarily affirmed. The sole basis on which
certiorari is granted is a conflict in the decisions of differing
panels of the court of appeals on the following issue of law:
Whether an appellate court obtains
jurisdiction over an appeal filed more than
ten days after denial of a post-judgment
motion in an unlawful detainer action.
¶3
The unpublished per curiam opinion in Hawkins v.
Callahan, 2001 UT App 343U, ¶ 2, patently erred in its

---

determination of this question. The panel in the instant case,
on the other hand, correctly decided the question and correctly
dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Therefore, its decision is
summarily affirmed.
