PER CURIAM:
John Lipphardt seeks to appeal the district court’s order re-
voking his supervised release and sentencing him to twelve months
and one day incarceration. Because Lipphardt filed his appeal be-
yond the ten-day appeal period but during the thirty-day period in
which the district court could extend the filing period upon a
showing of good cause or excusable neglect, this court remanded the
case to the district court for a finding on this issue. Lipphardt
failed to respond to the district court’s orders directing him to
state his reasons for the late filing. We therefore dismiss this
appeal for lack of jurisdiction because Lipphardt’s notice of ap-
peal was not timely filed and he failed to demonstrate good cause
or excusable neglect. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(b). We dispense with
oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-
ly presented in the materials before the court and argument would
not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
