UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

ANTHONY C. KENNEY, 

 Plaintiff - Appellant,

v.

NICS APPEAL DIVISION FBI

INFORMATION SERVICES, 

 Defendant - Appellee.

No. 10-5031

(D.C. No. 4:07-CV-00351-TCK-PJC)

(N.D. Okla.)

ORDER

Before HARTZ, O’BRIEN, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.

On December 18, 2009, district court entered minute orders denying Plaintiff

Anthony Kenney’s motion to reopen and motion for leave to proceed in forma pauperis.

Plaintiff, proceeding pro se, appeals. We dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

Plaintiff’s notice of appeal was not timely filed.

The time limit for filing a notice of appeal in a civil case is “mandatory and

jurisdictional.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214 (2007). The sixty-day deadline under

Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B) for filing a timely notice of appeal in this civil case expired on

February 16, 2010. Plaintiff’s notice of appeal was filed on March 9, 2010, which was

twenty-one days past the sixty-day filing deadline. Plaintiff did not move in the district court

for an extension of time. Pro se appellants must comply with the requirements of the

Federal Rules of Appellate Procedure that govern all litigants. See Ogden v. San Juan

County, 32 F.3d 452, 455 (10th Cir. 1994). 

The appeal is DISMISSED for lack of appellate jurisdiction.
