UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Kali A. HILL, a/k/a Eldridge L. Hill, a/k/a Kali, a/k/a Fly, Defendant-Appellant, 313 F. App'x 599

Remanded by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding-precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Kali A. Hill seeks to appeal the district court’s order summarily denying his motion to clarify the presentence report. 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)(1)(A). 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 its order on May 1, 2008. Hill filed the notice of appeal on May 16, 2008, after the ten-day period expired but within the thirty-day excusable neglect period. Because the notice of appeal was filed within the excusable neglect period, we grant leave to proceed in forma pauperis and remand the case to the district court for the court to determine whether Hill 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.

REMANDED For die purpose of this appeal, we assume that the date appearing on the notice of appeal is the earliest date it could have been properly delivered to prison officials for mailing to the court. Fed. R.App. P. 4(c); Houston v. Lack, 487 U.S. 266, 108 S.Ct. 2379, 101 L.Ed.2d 245 (1988).
