PER CURIAM:

Angonetha Singleton and Margaret Greene appeal the

district court’s order adopting the recommendation of the

magistrate judge and granting summary judgment in favor of

Defendant in their 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e-2000e-17 (2000) action. 

Parties are accorded thirty 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). This appeal period is “mandatory

and jurisdictional.” Browder v. Dir., Dep’t of Corr., 434 U.S.

257, 264 (1978) (quoting United States v. Robinson, 361 U.S. 220,

229 (1960)). 

The district court’s order was entered on the docket on

March 30, 2007. Greene’s notice of appeal was filed on May 14,

2007. Because Greene 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 her appeal, No. 07-

1418. 

With regard to Singleton, we have reviewed the record and

find no reversible error. Accordingly, we grant leave to proceed

in forma pauperis and affirm in No. 07-1411 for the reasons stated

by the district court. Culler v. Thrifty Car Rental, No. 3:05-cv01758- MBS (D.S.C. March 30, 2007). We dispense with oral argument

because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in

the materials before the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

No. 07-1411 AFFIRMED

No. 07-1428 DISMISSED
