PER CURIAM:

Curtis Glenn Moorer seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his Fed. R. 

Civ. P. 60(b) motion. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice of 

appeal was not timely filed. 

Parties are accorded 30 days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or 

order to note an appeal, Fed. R. App. 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 (2007).

The district court’s order was entered on the docket on August 3, 2016. The notice 

of appeal was filed on June 7, 2019. Because Moorer failed to file a timely notice of appeal 

or to obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period, we deny leave to proceed in 

forma pauperis and 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
