PER CURIAM: Michael Henderson seeks to appeal his conviction and sentence. In criminal cases, the defendant must file the notice of appeal within ten days after the entry of judgment. Fed. R.App. P. 4(b)(l)(A)(I). With or without a motion, upon a showing of excusable neglect or good cause, the district court may grant an extension of up to thirty days to file a notice of appeal. Fed. R.App. P. 4(b)(4); United States v. Reyes, 759 F.2d 351, 353 (4th Cir.1985). The district court entered the amended criminal judgment on January 13, 2006.
Henderson filed the notice of appeal, at the earliest, on January 31, 2006, after the ten-day period expired but within the thirty-day excusable neglect period. See Fed. R.App. P. 26(a)(2), (4) (providing that “intermediate Saturdays, Sundays, and legal holidays,” including “Martin Luther King, Jr.’s Birthday,” are excluded when period is less than eleven days).
Because the notice of appeal was filed within the excusable neglect period, we remand the case to the district court for the court to determine whether Henderson has shown excusable neglect or good cause warranting an extension of the ten-day appeal period. The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further consideration. We defer acting on the Government’s motion to dismiss this appeal until the record is returned to us.
