United States Attorney, Norfolk, Virginia, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

             Lino H. Haynes seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying in part and granting in part his Fed. R. Crim. P. 35

motion.   In criminal cases, the defendant must file his notice of

appeal within ten business days of the entry of judgment.     Fed. R.

App. P. 4(b)(1)(A) and 26(a)(2); see United States v. Breit, 

, 528-29 (4th Cir. 1985) (holding that ten-day appeal

period applies to appeals from Rule 35 ruling).     With or without a

motion, the district court may grant an extension of time of up to

thirty days upon a showing of excusable neglect or good cause.

Fed. R. App. P. 4(b)(4); United States v. Reyes, 

, 353

(4th Cir. 1985).

             The district court entered its order on May 11, 2004; the

ten-day appeal period expired on May 25.        See Fed. R. App. P.

26(a)(2). Haynes filed his notice of appeal after both the ten-day

period and the thirty-day excusable-neglect period had expired.

The notice of appeal is thus untimely, and the appeal must be

dismissed.    Therefore, we grant Haynes’ motion to amend his brief,

deny his motion to proceed in forma pauperis, and dismiss the

appeal for lack of jurisdiction.      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
