                                2
PER CURIAM:

               Rafia Hamid appeals from the district court’s order

dismissing as untimely her appeal from the bankruptcy court’s

orders granting relief from the automatic stay, dismissing her

adversary proceeding, and dismissing her bankruptcy case.                         The

district    court    dismissed     Hamid’s      appeal    after    she   failed    to

timely file a notice of appeal.                 See Fed. R. Bankr. P. 8002;

Bowles    v.    Russell,   551    U.S.   205,    214     (2007)   (“[T]he    timely

filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional

requirement.”).         We have reviewed the record and the district

court’s order and find no reversible error.                       Accordingly, we

affirm for the reasons stated by the district court.                      Hamid v.

Deutsche Bank Nat’l Trust, No. 1:13-cv-01190-AJT-JFA (E.D. Va.

Jan. 28, 2014).          We dispense with oral argument because the

facts    and    legal   contentions      are   adequately     presented      in   the

materials      before   this     court   and    argument    would   not     aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                          AFFIRMED
