UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 95-7798 UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, Plaintiff - Appellee, versus JOYCE C. JAMESON, Defendant - Appellant. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern Dis- trict of North Carolina, at Fayetteville. W. Earl Britt, District Judge. (CR-90-60) Submitted: April 15, 1996 Decided: April 29, 1996 Before ERVIN and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Joyce C. Jameson, Appellant Pro Se. Rudolf A. Renfer, Jr., OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM: Appellant noted this appeal outside the appeal period estab- lished by Fed. R. App. P. 4 and failed to obtain an extension of the appeal period within the additional thirty-day period provided by that rule. 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)). The district court entered its order on August 4, 1995; Appellant's notice of appeal was filed on October 30, 1995. 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 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 2
