States Attorney, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
James Daniel Bray seeks to appeal the district court’s
order denying his motion for free copies of the record in his
criminal case. In criminal cases, the defendant must file the
notice of appeal within ten days after the entry of judgment. Fed.
R. App. P. 4(b)(1)(A). With or without a motion, upon a showing of
excusable neglect or good cause, the district court may grant an
extension of up to thirty days to file a notice of appeal. Fed. R.
App. P. 4(b)(4); United States v. Reyes, 759 F.2d 351, 353 (4th
Cir. 1985).
The district court entered its order on March 27, 2006.
The notice of appeal was filed in December 2006. Because Bray
failed to file a timely notice of appeal or to obtain an extension
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 the court and argument would not
aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
