PER CURIAM:
Cleve Alexander Johnson seeks to appeal the district
court’s order adopting the report and recommendation of the
magistrate judge and denying Johnson’s 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2012)
motion. The notice of appeal was received in the district court
after expiration of the appeal period. However, Johnson claims
that he did not receive notice of the district court’s final
order in a timely manner. Accordingly, we remand the case for
the limited purpose of allowing the district court to determine
whether the time for filing a notice of appeal should be
reopened under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6). The record, as
supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further
consideration.
