SUMMARY ORDER Plaintiff-Appellant Melvin Thompson, proceeding pro se, appeals from the September 29,2015 judgment of United States District Court for the District of Connecticut (Shea, /.), entering judgment in favor of Defendants-Appellees Sam Rizzitelli, Shelia Parizo, Sandy Watson, Anita Dug-gatto, Christine Robinson, and Derby Democratic Town Committee following a jury trial. Thompson challenges the district court’s exclusion at trial of-a settlement agreement and testimony regarding that agreement.
We assume the parties’ familiarity with the underlying facts, procedural history, and specification of issues for review. We review the district court’s evidentia-ry rulings for abuse of discretion. Warren v. Pataki, 823 F.3d 125, 137 (2d Cir. 2016). Even when we conclude that the district court abused its discretion, however, “an erroneous evidentiary ruling warrants a new trial only when a substantial right of a party is affected, as when a jury’s judgment would be swayed in a material fashion by the error.” Id. at 138 (internal quotation marks omitted).
In the instant case, Thompson has failed to provide this Court with the necessary transcripts from the proceedings below. Federal Rule of Appellate Procedure 10(
b) requires an appellant, within 14 days after the filing of a notice of appeal, to either (1) order transcripts from any proceedings that are necessary to the appeal from the reporter and file such order with the district court; or (2) file a certificate stating that no transcript will be ordered. Thompson did neither. Without the' transcripts, we cannot determine whether the district court’s evidentiary ruling was an abuse of discretion or whether, considering the entirety of the evidence presented at trial, any error was harmless.
Accordingly, consistent with the long-established practice of this Court, we are constrained to dismiss Thompson’s appeal. See Wrighten v. Glowski, 232 F.3d 119, 120 (2d Cir. 2000) (dismissing portion of the appeal with prejudice where “plaintiff failed to provide this Court with the trial transcripts needed to conduct meaningful appellate review”); Gayle v. Walker, 148 F.3d 214, 214 (2d Cir. 1998) (dismissing pro se appeal without prejudice to reinstatement for failure to file transcripts).
Thompson’s appeal is therefore DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE to reinstatement, provided that, within 30 days of the date of this order, he provides the Court with (1) the transcripts of the two pretrial conferences discussing the admissibility of the settlement agreement and the trial transcripts or (2) proof that he has ordered the transcripts. Upon timely filing of the transcripts, the appeal will be reinstated.
