Larry F. DEAN, Petitioner-Appellant,
v.
STATE OF WEST VIRGINIA; Circuit Court of Marion County,
Fairmont, West Virginia; Fred L. Fox, II,
Respondents-Appellees.

No. 89-6796.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted: Oct. 27, 1989.
Decided: Feb. 13, 1990.

Larry F. Dean, appellant pro se.

Patrick N. Wilson, County Attorney's Office, for appellees.

Before DONALD RUSSELL, WILKINSON and WILKINS, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Larry F. Dean noted this appeal outside the 30-day appeal period established by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(1), and failed to move for an extension of the appeal period within the additional 30-day period provided by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(5). The time periods established by Fed.R.App.P. 4 are "mandatory and jurisdictional." Browder v. Director, Dep't of Corrections, 434 U.S. 257, 264 (1978) (quoting United States v. Robinson, 361 U.S. 220, 229 (1960)). Appellant's failure to note a timely appeal or obtain an extension of the appeal period deprives this Court of jurisdiction to consider this case.* We therefore deny a certificate of probable cause and dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.

2

DISMISSED.

Dean's original habeas petition and this petition for rehearing were denied without prejudice. Accordingly, Dean may properly raise his claim by filing a new habeas petition in the district court after exhausting his state remedies
