PER CURIAM: 

 Russell G. Rogers appeals the district court’s order 

of June 16, 2008, granting his motion for reduction of sentence 

under 18 U.S.C. § 3582(c)(2) (2006) and reducing his sentence by 

one month. On February 27, 2009, Rogers filed a document in the 

district court that was construed and docketed as a notice of 

appeal of this order. In response to our order to address the 

issue of timeliness, the Government has disclosed that its files 

contain a Notice of Appeal received by the U.S. Attorney’s 

Office on June 25, 2008, with an attached certificate of service 

indicating that it was mailed to the relevant district court on 

June 22, 2008. 

 Because it appears that Rogers may have filed a timely 

notice of appeal, we remand this matter to the district court so 

that it may determine whether any such notice was in fact timely 

filed. The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to 

this court for further consideration.
