OPINION PER CURIAM. Appellant Corey Bracey appeals from an order of the District Court denying his motion for a final order. For the'reasons that follow, we will summarily affirm.

Bracey, a Pennsylvania state prisoner, filed a civil rights action, 42 U.S.C. § 1983, in the United States District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania against certain Department of Corrections officials and various health care employees at four different correctional institutions, alleging that the manner in which prisoners with mental health issues are housed in the Restricted Housing Unit, his confinement in a continuous-camera observation cell, and his classification on the Restricted Release List, violated his constitutional rights.

The defendants, in two groups— the Commonwealth Defendants and the Medical Defendants — moved for

summary judgment, Fed.R.Civ.P. 56(a). Bracey opposed the motions. The Magistrate Judge filed a Report and Recommendation, in which she recommended that the defendants’ motions be granted. In an order entered on September 17, 2014, the District Court granted

summary judgment to the defendants.. Judgment was entered on that same day. Bracey placed a notice of appeal in the prison mailbox system, resulting in a timely appeal docketed at C.A.

No. 14-4248, but because it appeared that the claims against Commonwealth defendant Shirley Moore-Smeal may not have been resolved, our Clerk advised Bracey that his appeal might be subject to dismissal for lack of jurisdiction, see Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b) (order entered by District Court that determines rights and liabilities of fewer than all of the parties is not immediately appealable unless the District Court directs entry of final judgment as to the parties). Bracey was invited to submit a response to the question of jurisdiction.

Meanwhile, he did not either pay the appellate docketing fees or submit a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. For this reason, the appeal was procedurally terminated by our Clerk on December 10, 2014 for failure to prosecute insofar as Bracey had failed to pay the requisite fee, see Fed. R.App. P. 3(a); 3rd Cir. LAR 3.3 and Misc. 107.1(a). On December 17, 2014, and thus after his appeal of the District Court’s

summary judgment decision was dismissed for failure to pay the filing fees, Bracey filed a motion' in the District Court for a final order pursuant to Rule 54(b), or, in the alternative, for a trial on his claims against Moore-Smeal. The Magistrate Judge denied the motion as unnecessary, concluding that it was clear from the totality of the Report and Recommendation that the claims brought against Moore-Smeal were addressed and disposed of, even though Moore-Smeal’s name was inadvertently omitted from the list of Commonwealth defendants for whom

summary judgment was being recommended in the Conclusion of the Report and Recommendation. Bra-cey appealed the Magistrate Judge’s order to the District Court, see 28 U.S.C. § 636(b)(1)(A). In an order entered on February 11, 2015, the District Court affirmed the Magistrate Judge and denied the motion for a final order, again, in effect, as unnecessary because the claims against Moore-Smeal had been disposed of by the Court’s original order awarding

summary judgment to the Commonwealth defendants. Bracey placed a notice of appeal from this order in the prison mailbox system, resulting in the instant timely appeal. He then moved for leave to appeal in forma pauperis and this motion was granted. Bracey was advised that the appeal was subject to

summary dismissal under 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(

B) or

summary action under Third Cir. LAR 27.4 and I.O.P. 10.6. The appellees have moved to quash the appeal, and Bracey has submitted two responses, in which he has argued, in pertinent part, that he abandoned his original appeal docketed at C.A. No. 14^248 due to a good faith belief that it was jurisdic-tionally defective and because he could not afford to pay for a jurisdictionally defective appeal. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 to review the District Court’s order denying Bracey’s post-judgment motion for a final order. See Isidor Paiewonsky, Inc. v.

Sharp Properties, Inc., 998 F.2d 145, 149-50 (3d Cir.1993) (post-judgment orders are final and immediately appealable). As a threshold matter, we emphasize that the scope of this appeal is limited to review of the District Court’s order denying Bracey’s motion for a final order. Bracey’s appeal of the District Court’s order awarding

summary judgment to the defendants, C.A. No. 14-4248, was dismissed for failure to prosecute. We will summarily affirm the order of the District Court because no substantial question is presented by this appeal, Third Circuit LAR 27.4 and I.O.P. 10.6. The Commonwealth’s attorney entered an appearance on behalf of Moore-Smeal, and, as noted by the Magistrate Judge, a review of the pleadings, the totality of the

summary judgment motion, and the reasoning in the Report and Recommendation lead inescapably to the conclusion that the District Court’s order entered on September 17, 2014 granting

summary judgment to the defendants necessarily included Moore-Smeal. It thus was a final order as to all claims and all parties, making Bra-cey’s motion for a final order unnecessary. We would add that the motion for

summary judgment filed on behalf of the Commonwealth defendants plainly included Moore-Smeal, even though she was inadvertently omitted from the list of specific defendants set forth in the motion. In sum, Bracey’s motion for a final order was unnecessary and thus properly denied by the District Court. With regard to the appeal that was dismissed, an appellant who seeks to correct a deficiency after the appeal is dismissed and to reopen the appeal must have this Court’s approval. LAR Misc. 107.2. He must file a motion to reopen the appeal and the motion must be justified by a showing of good cause. Id.

If the motion to reopen is not filed within 10 days of dismissal, it must be accompanied by a request to be exempt from the timeliness requirement, and the motion must also be accompanied by, in Braceas case, either the appellate docketing fees or a motion to proceed in forma pauperis. Bracey has taken none of these steps to reopen his appeal docketed at C.A. No. 14-4248 but he may still do so, and, in his motion to reopen, he may present his argument that he abandoned his original appeal due to a good faith belief that it was jurisdictionally defective.

We express no view on the outcome of any such motion to reopen the appeal, and we caution Bracey that, if he is successful in reopening his appeal, it will result in an additional assessment of fees. For the foregoing reasons, we will summarily affirm the order of the District Court denying Bracey’s motion for a final order. The appellees’ motion to quash the appeal is denied. This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P, 5.7 does not constitute binding precedent.
