Dismissed in part; affirmed in part by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: In this employment discrimination proceeding, Catherine Alexander appeals the district court’s orders granting
summary judgment against her and denying her motion for reconsideration. Appellees have moved to dismiss Alexander’s appeal as untimely. Parties in a civil action in which the United States is not a party have thirty days following entry of judgment in which to file a notice of appeal. Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil case is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007); see United States v. Urutyan, 564 F.3d 679, 685 (4th Cir.2009) (discussing Bowles and the appeal periods under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)).
Alexander’s notice of appeal, filed more than thirty days after the district court entered its order granting
summary judgment, was untimely as to that order. Moreover, we find that Alexander’s motion for reconsideration, which was filed more than twenty-eight days after the district court’s order granting the motion for
summary judgment, did not toll the time for filing a notice of appeal of the underlying order because it was not a timely-filed Rule 59(
e) motion. See Panhorst v. United States, 241 F.3d 367, 369-73 (4th Cir. 2001) (noting mandatory nature of Rule 59 time limits). Thus, as to the order granting
summary judgment, we grant the motion to dismiss. Alexander’ notice of appeal was, however, timely as to the district court’s order denying her motion for reconsideration. Thus, we decline Appellees’ request to dismiss the appeal as to that order. Upon review of the record, we conclude that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying relief pursuant to either Rule 59(
e) or Rule 60(b). See Robinson v. Wix Filtration Corp., 599 F.3d 403, 407 (4th Cir.2010) (standard of review for Rule 59(e)); MLC Auto., LLC v. Town of S. Pines, 532 F.3d 269, 277 (4th Cir.2008) (standard of review for Rule 60(b)). Thus, we affirm the district court’s denial of Alexander’s motion for reconsideration. In sum, we dismiss Alexander’s appeal of the district court’s order granting
summary judgment against Alexander and affirm the district court’s denial of Alexander’s motion for reconsideration. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this court and argument would not aid the decisional process. DISMISSED IN PART; AFFIRMED IN PART.
