    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
    Submitted: Jan. 3, 2014.
    Decided: Jan. 24, 2014.
    Rudy Villanueva, Appellant Pro Se. Barbara Murcier Bowens, Assistant United States Attorney, Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellees.
    
      Before NIEMEYER, MOTZ, and KING, Circuit Judges.
   Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Rudy Villanueva, a federal prisoner, seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and granting summary judgment to Appellees on Villanueva’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice of appeal was not timely filed.

When the United States or its officer or agency is a party, the notice of appeal must be filed no more than sixty days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or order, Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(B), 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 ease is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007).

The district court’s order was entered on the docket on March 4, 2013. The notice of appeal was filed, at the earliest, on September 13, 2013. Because Villa-nueva failed to file a timely notice of appeal or to obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period, we 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. 
      
       Although Villanueva filed a Rule 4(a)(6) motion to reopen, the motion was not filed within the time period set forth in that rule.
