United States Court of Appeals

FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA CIRCUIT

____________

No. 15-5231 September Term, 2015

1:15-cv-00676-UNA

Filed On: January 19, 2016

Margaret Kathleen Nickerson-Malpher,

Appellant

v.

United States Federal Corporation, et al.,

Appellees

ON APPEAL FROM THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

FOR THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA

BEFORE: Kavanaugh and Pillard, Circuit Judges, and Ginsburg, Senior Judge

J U D G M E N T

This appeal was considered on the record from the United States District Court

for the District of Columbia and on the brief filed by appellant. See Fed. R. App. P.

34(a)(2); D.C. Cir. Rule 34(j). It is

ORDERED AND ADJUDGED that the district court's order, filed July 22, 2015,

denying relief under Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b), be affirmed. The notice of appeal, filed

August 10, 2015, was timely only as to the order denying appellant's Rule 60(b) motion.

The Rule 60(b) motion did not toll the time for noting an appeal from the district court's

order entered May 5, 2015, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) (motion to alter or amend

judgment must be filed no later than 28 days after entry of judgment), and "an appeal

from the denial of Rule 60(b) relief does not bring up the underlying judgment for

review," Browder v. Director, Illinois Dept. of Corrections, 434 U.S. 257, 263 n.7 (1978). 

The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying the Rule 60(b) motion. See

Smalls v. United States, 471 F.3d 186, 191-92 (D.C. Cir. 2006).

Pursuant to D.C. Circuit Rule 36, this disposition will not be published. The Clerk

is directed to withhold issuance of the mandate herein until seven days after resolution
