PER CURIAM:
Jamerson Devoir Tillman and James Tillman seek to
appeal their convictions and sentences. In criminal cases, the
defendant must file the notice of appeal within fourteen 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 the judgments on
September 25, 2001. The notices of appeal were filed on
October 25, 2010. Because Jamerson Tillman and James Tillman
failed to file timely notices of appeal or obtain an extension
of the appeal period, we dismiss the appeals. 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
