PER CURIAM:

Nestor Campos-Alonzo appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion to modify his sentence under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)

(2000). In criminal cases, a defendant must file his notice of

appeal within ten days of the entry of judgment. Fed. R. App. P.

4(b)(1)(A). The district court, with or without a motion, may

grant an extension of time to file a notice of appeal of up to

thirty days upon a showing of excusable neglect or good cause.

Fed. R. App. P. 4(b)(4); United States v. Reyes, 759 F.2d 351, 353

(4th Cir. 1985).

The district court entered judgment on July 3, 2006; the

ten-day appeal period expired on July 18, 2006. Campos-Alonzo

filed a notice of appeal after the ten-day appeal period expired

but within the thirty-day excusable neglect period. Because the

notice of appeal was filed within the excusable neglect period, we

remand the case to the district court for the court to determine

whether Campos-Alonzo has shown excusable neglect or good cause

warranting an extension of the ten-day appeal period. The record,

as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further

consideration.

 We grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 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. 

REMANDED
