Kenneth Sorensen, Appellant Pr o Se. Nichole Cherie Gatewood, Ankush Nayar, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.3 PER CURIAM:
Kenneth Sorense n seeks to appeal the district court’s order granting Defend ants summary judgment in Sorense n’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) civil rights action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice of appeal was not timely
filed.
Parties are accord ed 30 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). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell , 551 U.S. 205, 214 (2007).
The district court’s final dispositive order was entered on the docket on June 19,
2017

. On Sorense n’s mot ion, the district court extended the appeal period until M onday, August 21, 2017. Sorense n’s notice of appeal, however, was not received for filing until Thursday , August 24 , 201 7

. * Accordingly, b ecause Sorense n failed to file a timely notice of appeal despite receiving an extension of the appeal period, we are constrained to dismiss the appeal as untimely. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument
woul d not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED

* Because Sorensen was not incarcerated when he filed the notice of appeal, Fed. R. App. P. 4 (c), the so

- called “prison mailbox rule,” is not applicable in this case.
