Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

      Shain Claude Collins seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying his Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) motion.             Collins argued

in his notice of appeal, and the record suggests, that he did

not timely receive notice of the entry of the district court’s

order, and further requested a reopening of the appeal period.

See   Fed.   R.   App.   P.   4(a)(6)(A).   Because   the   30-day   appeal

period is jurisdictional, Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214

(2007), we remand the case for the limited purpose of allowing

the district court to determine whether to reopen the time to

file an appeal, pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6).

                                                                  REMANDED

                                      2
