Tribal Law 226 (2000) Notice is taken that the final order appealed from herein was entered on November 15, 2001. Fifteen (15) working days expired on December 7, 2001. Appellant did not file her petition until January 10, 2002. 8207(a) prohibits this Court from granting extensions of the fifteen day filing period, therefore the Petition for Review must be denied.
