PER CURIAM:

      Ashlei Renee Robinson seeks to appeal the district court’s

order adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

denying     relief       on   her      28    U.S.C.     § 2255    (2012)     motion.

We dismiss      the     appeal   for    lack      of   jurisdiction    because    the

notice of appeal was not timely filed.

      When the United States or its officer or agency is a party,

the notice of appeal must be filed no more than 60 days after

the entry of the district court’s final judgment or order, Fed.

R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B), unless the district court extends the

appeal period under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5), or reopens the

appeal period under Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(6).                          “[T]he timely

filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional

requirement.”         Bowles v. Russell, 

, 214 (2007).

      The district court’s order was entered on the docket on

April 6, 2015.          The notice of appeal was filed on September 14,

2015. *    Because Robinson failed to file a timely notice of appeal

or to obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period, we

dismiss the appeal.           We dispense with oral argument because the

facts     and   legal    contentions        are   adequately     presented   in   the

      *For the purpose of this appeal, we assume that the date
appearing on the notice of appeal is the earliest date it could
have been properly delivered to prison officials for mailing to
the court. Fed. R. App. P. 4(c); Houston v. Lack, 

,
276 (1988).
