PER CURIAM:

Marie Assa’ad-Faltas appeals the district court’s order adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to dismiss her claims arising out of a parking ticket she received in 2010, as well as its order denying her self-styled Fed.R.Civ.P. 59(e) motion. We dismiss Assa’ad-Faltas’s appeal in part because she failed to timely appeal the district court’s order dismissing her claims, and affirm the district court’s order denying her motion for reconsideration.

Parties in a civil action in which the United States is not a party have thirty days following entry of judgment in which to file a notice of appeal. Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). “[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, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007); see United States v. Urutyan, 564 F.3d 679, 685 (4th Cir.2009) (discussing Bowles and the appeal periods under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)).

Assa’ad-Faltas’s notice of appeal, filed more than thirty days after the district court entered its order granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss, was untimely filed. Moreover, we find that Assa’ad-Faltas’s motion for reconsideration, which was filed more than twenty-eight days after the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss, did not toll the time for filing a notice of appeal of the underlying order because it was not a timely filed Rule 59(e) motion. See Panhorst v. United States, 241 F.3d 367, 369-73 (4th Cir.2001). Although the district court did not explicitly construe Assa’ad-Faltas’s motion for reconsideration as a Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b) motion, we nonetheless find that Assa’ad-Faltas’s motion failed to establish that she was entitled to Rule 60(b) relief. See Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b).

Based on the foregoing, we dismiss Assa’ad-Faltas’s appeal of the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motion to dismiss and affirm the district court’s denial of Assa’ad-Faltas’s motion for reconsideration. 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 IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART. 
      
       Because Assa'ad-Faltas's Rule 60(b) motion was not the functional equivalent of a notice of appeal, see Fed. R.App. P. 3, we decline to construe the motion as a notice of appeal.
