Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria.  Claude M. Hilton, District Judge.  (CA-91-1383-A)
Mary E. Miles, Appellant Pro Se.
Rebeca Olivia Hidalgo, Assistant United States Attorney, Alexandria, Virginia;  Anthony Wayne DuComb, Sr., United States Postal Service, San Bruno, California, for Appellee.
E.D.Va.
DISMISSED.
Before HALL and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Mary E. Miles noted this appeal outside the sixty-day appeal period established by Fed.  R. App.  P. 4(a)(1), and failed to move for an extension of the appeal period within the additional thirty-day period provided by Fed.  R. App.  P. 4(a)(5).*  The time periods established by Fed.  R. App.  P. 4 are "mandatory and jurisdictional."   Browder v. Director, Dep't of Corrections, 434 U.S. 257, 264 (1978) (quoting  United States v. Robinson, 361 U.S. 220, 229 (1960)).  Appellant's failure to note a timely appeal or obtain an extension of the appeal period deprives this Court of jurisdiction to consider this case.  We therefore dismiss the appeal.  We deny Appellant's motion for oral argument and dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED

*
 Further, even if Miles did not receive notice of the district court's order, her appeal was not filed within the extension period provided in Fed.  R. App.  P. 4(a)(6)
