Hargrove seeks to appeal the district court’s February 10, 2010 order dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) action. We remanded the case “for the limited purpose of allowing the district court to obtain from the parties information regarding when Hargrove provided his notice of appeal to prison officials for mailing and to determine whether the filing was timely under [Fed. R. App. P.] 4(c)(1) and Houston v. Lack.[ *]” Hargrove v. Fuller, 408 F. App’x 675, 675-76 (4th Cir. 2011). The district court ordered the parties to submit evidence regarding the timeliness of Hargrove’s notice of appeal; each party responded. The district court then returned the supplemented record to us without making a timeliness determination in accordance with our prior opinion. Accordingly, we remand the case to the district court for the limited purpose of allowing the district court to determine whether Hargrove’s notice of appeal was timely. The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further consideration. REMANDED * 487 U.S. 266, 276 (1988). 3
