No. 95-6759.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted Nov. 28, 1995.
Decided March 28, 1996.
Cathy Miller, Appellant Pro Se. John Britton Russell, SANDS, ANDERSON, MARKS & MILLER, Richmond, Virginia; Mark Ralph Davis, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.
Before HALL and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:
The notice of appeal in this case was received in the district court shortly after expiration of the appeal period. Under Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266 (1988), the notice is considered filed as of the date Appellant delivered it to prison officials for forwarding to the court. The record does not disclose when Appellant delivered the notice of appeal for mailing to the court. Accordingly, we remand the case for the district court to obtain this information from the parties and determine the timeliness of the filing under Houston v. Lack. The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further consideration.
REMANDED.
