ROBBINS INTERNATIONAL CONSTRUCTION CORPORATION, Plaintiff-Appellant,
v.
HEILIG MEYERS, INC., Defendant-Appellee.

No. 88-3546.

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

Submitted: June 24, 1988.
Decided: Aug. 30, 1988.

Robbins International Construction Corporation, appellant pro se.

Before WIDENER, JAMES DICKSON PHILLIPS and MURNAGHAN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

1

Robbins International Construction Corporation* noted this appeal outside the 30-day appeal period established by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(1), and failed to move for an extension of the appeal period within the additional 30-day period provided by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(5). The time periods established by Fed.R.App.P. 4 are "mandatory and jurisdictional." Browder v. Director, Dep't of Corrections, 434 U.S. 257, 264 (1978) (quoting United States v. Robinson, 361 U.S. 220, 229 (1960)). Appellant's failure to note a timely appeal or obtain an extension of the appeal period deprives this Court of jurisdiction to consider this case. See Shah v. Hutto, 722 F.2d 1167 (4th Cir. 1983) (en banc), cert. denied, 466 U.S. 975 (1984). We therefore dismiss the appeal. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal arguments are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and oral argument would not significantly aid the decisional process.

2

DISMISSED.

*

Because this appeal is untimely, it is unnecessary to address whether Earl J. Robbins, Sr., could note an appeal on behalf of this corporation
