   MEMORANDUM

Kenneth Marlowe appeals pro se the district court’s order denying reconsideration of its judgment dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that Montana’s emergency child protection proceedings violated his due process rights. We have jurisdiction pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We review for abuse of discretion, Sch. Dist. No. 1J Multnomah County v. ACandS, Inc., 5 F.3d 1255, 1262 (9th Cir.1993), and we affirm.

We lack jurisdiction to address Marlowe’s contentions regarding the merits of the district court’s original entry of judgment because he failed to file a timely notice of appeal or a timely post-judgment tolling motion. See American Ironworks & Erectors, Inc. v. North American Const. Corp., 248 F.3d 892, 898-99 (9th Cir.2001). Accordingly, the scope of Marlowe’s appeal is limited to the denial of his motion for reconsideration.

The district court did not abuse its discretion in denying Marlowe’s motion for reconsideration because he failed to demonstrate mistake, inadvertence, surprise, excusable neglect, newly-discovered evidence, or any other basis for relief. See ACandS, 5 F.3d at 1262-63.

AFFIRMED.
