Tommy Ray Robinson, Appellant Pro Se. Douglas Conrad Meister, Gina Marie Smith,
MEYERS, RODBELL & ROSENBAUM, PA, Riverdale Park, Maryland, for Appellees.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Tommy Ray Robinson appeals from the district court’s order granting summary

judgment to Defendants in Robinson’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) suit. Parties to a civil

action are accorded 30 days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or order

to note an appeal. Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal

in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 
551 U.S. 205
, 214

(2007). The district court entered its final judgment on the docket on February 2, 2018.

Robinson filed his notice of appeal, at the earliest, on approximately April 25, 2018, after

the 30-day appeal period expired.

       However, Robinson’s notice of appeal referenced earlier attempts to appeal that

are not reflected on the docket sheet. Accordingly, we remand the case for the limited

purpose of allowing the district court to determine whether Robinson timely filed a notice

of appeal. The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further

consideration.

                                                                              REMANDED
