Docket

*1 Before WILKINSON, AGEE, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Rene Ramsey, Appellant Pro Se. Kevin Charles McCormick, WHITEFORD, TAYLOR & PRESTON, LLP, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Rene Ramsey seeks to appeal the district court’s order granting Broadway Services, Incorporated’s (“Broadway”), motion to dismiss as untimely Ramsey’s complaint alleging discrimination and retaliation under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. §§ 2000e to 2000e-17. Broadway has filed a motion to dismiss Ramsey’s appeal as untimely. We grant Broadway’s motion and dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice of appeal was not timely filed.

In civil cases, parties have 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 entered its order on November 12, 2020. Ramsey filed the notice of appeal on December 17, 2020. Because Ramsey failed to file a timely notice of appeal or to obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period, we grant Broadway’s motion to dismiss and dismiss the appeal.

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.

DISMISSED
