PER CURIAM:

Lavern R. Crump seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing her employment discrimination action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice of appeal was not timely. filed.

Parties are accorded thirty days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or order to note an appeal, Fed. RApp. P. 4(a)(1)(A), unless the district court extends the appeal period under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(5), or reopens the appeal period under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(6). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007).

The district court’s order was entered on the docket on October 25, 2013. The notice of appeal was filed on October 14, 2014. Because Crump failed to file a timely notice of appeal or to obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period, we dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before' this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
