Supreme Court, Special Term, Nassau County,

December 26, 1956.

*788
      *H. Howard Babcock*for defendant.

*Bernard Gekoski*for plaintiff.

Howabd T. Hogan, J.

Motion to dismiss *“*the second amended complaint, and all of the causes of action stated therein ” pursuant to subdivision 7 of rule 107 of the Rules of Civil Practice.

A prior motion for the same relief addressed to the first amended complaint was granted by this court by decision dated August 6,1956. In that decision, permission to serve an amended complaint repleading the second cause of action on the theory of *quantum meruit*was granted. The order entered thereon, however, extended permission to serve an amended complaint without limitation.

The present or second amended complaint has repleaded with some changes the allegations and causes of action contained in the first amended complaint. For the reasons stated at length in the decision of August 6, 1956 and for the additional reason that the words contained in the present complaint ' ‘ during the-plaintiff’s lifetime ” or *“*for the duration of her life ” make applicable the Statute of Frauds (Personal Property Law, § 31, subd. 1) on the ground that performance was “ not to he completed before the end of a lifetime ” the defendant’s motion is again granted.

Permission will be granted, however, to replead again the second cause of action only. A cause of action properly pleaded on the theory of *quantum meruit*is not barred by the Statute of Frauds but the second cause of action contained in the second amended complaint is obviously based upon the oral contract. In serving a new complaint, the plaintiff should not include any allegations upon which evidence could not be offered at the trial. The plaintiff could not, for instance, ‘ ‘ rely on the contract as evidence of the value of the services ” where the oral contract is barred by the statute *(Parver*v. *Matthews-Kadetsky Co.,*242 App. Div. 1, 3). (See, also, *Erben*v. *Lorillard,*19 N. Y. 299.) Therefore, the allegation contained in paragraph “ 14 ” of the second amended complaint 1 ‘ which defendant promised and agreed to pay ” should be excluded.

The amended complaint which may be served as to the second cause of action shall be served within 20 days after the service of a copy of the order to be entered hereon.

Settle order on notice.
#### Brenda PHELPS, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Stanley JAMES, Individually, and in his official capacity as the Sheriff of Washington County, NC, Defendant-Appellee.

No. 02-1719.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted Nov. 7, 2002.

Decided Nov. 13, 2002.

Robert L. White, Greenville, North Carolina, for Appellant. Scott C. Hart, Sumrell, Sugg, Carmichael, Hicks & Hart, P.A., New Bern, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Before WILLIAM D. WILKINS and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

PER CURIAM.

Brenda Phelps seeks to appeal the district court’s order and judgment granting Washington County, North Carolina Sheriff Stanley James’ summary judgment in Phelps’ employment discrimination action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

In civil cases against a nonfederal party, a litigant must file a notice of appeal within thirty days of the district court’s entry of judgment. Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1). The appeal period is mandatory and jurisdictional. *Browder v. Director, Dep’t of Corr.,*434 U.S. 257, 267, 98 S.Ct. 556, 54 L.Ed.2d 521 (1978) (quoting *United States v. Robinson,*361 U.S. 220, 229, 80 S.Ct. 282, 4 L.Ed.2d 259 (1960)).

The district court’s judgment was entered on May 13, 2002. Phelps’ notice of appeal was due thirty days later, by June 12, 2002. Phelps’ notice of appeal was signed, filed, and entered on June 13, 2002, one day after the expiration of her thirty day appeals period. Because Phelps failed to file a timely notice of appeal, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. 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 in the decisional process.

*DISMISSED.*

                Notice of August 28, 2008

                
Continuation of the National Emergency With 
                Respect To Certain Terrorist Attacks

                Consistent with section 202(d) of the National 
                Emergencies Act (50 U.S.C. 1622(d)), I am continuing 
                for 1 year the national emergency I declared on 
                September 14, 2001, in Proclamation 7463, with respect 
                to the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, New 
                York, New York, the Pentagon, and aboard United 
                Airlines flight 93, and the continuing and immediate 
                threat of further attacks on the United States.

                Because the terrorist threat continues, the national 
                emergency declared on September 14, 2001, and the 
                powers and authorities adopted to deal with that 
                emergency, must continue in effect beyond September 14, 
                2008. Therefore, I am continuing in effect for an 
                additional year the national emergency I declared on 
                September 14, 2001, with respect to the terrorist 
                threat.

                This notice shall be published in the Federal Register 
                and transmitted to the Congress.

Plaintiff was a guest passenger in the automobile of Peter Roueche at the time of the occurrence of the accident which we have discussed in the matter of Mrs. Camille Smith v. Peter Roueche (La. App.) 153 So. 487, decided by us to-day.

In the Smith Case we reached the conclusion that defendant was in no way at fault and that the accident resulted from the condition of the roadway and that defendant could not have anticipated such a condition.

In the lower court judgment was rendered dismissing plaintiff’s suit.

For the reasons given in Smith v. Roueche* the judgment appealed from is affirmed.

Affirmed.
