UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

ANTHONY KENNEY,

 Plaintiff ! Appellant,

v.

BOARD OF REVIEW OKLAHOMA

SECURITY COMMISSION,

 Defendant ! Appellee.

No. 08-5051

(D.C. No. 08!CV!00045!CVE!PJC)

ORDER

Before KELLY, HARTZ, and GORSUCH, Circuit Judges.

Plaintiff Anthony Kenney appeals the district court’s opinion and order and

separate judgment dismissing his case for lack of subject matter jurisdiction.

“A timely notice of appeal is both mandatory and jurisdictional.” Allender v.

Raytheon Aircraft Co., 439 F.3d 1236, 1239 (10th Cir. 2006) (quotation omitted). In a

civil case, a notice of appeal “must be filed with the district clerk within 30 days after the

judgment or order appealed from is entered.” Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). Although Mr

Kenney is proceeding pro se, he still must comply with the time requirements in the

procedural rules. Odgen v. San Juan County, 32 F.3d 452, 455 (10th Cir. 1994).

Here, the district court’s final judgment was entered January 24, 2008. The notice

of appeal was not filed until March 27, 2008, more than a month after the 30-day deadline

to file the notice of appeal passed. Because the notice of appeal was filed untimely, this

court lacks jurisdiction to consider the appeal. Bowles v. Russell, 127 S. Ct. 2360, 2366-

67 (2007); see also U.S. v. Garduno, 506 F.3d 1287, 1290 (10th Cir. 2007).

Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED.
