Remanded by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

Charles Willingham seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) civil rights action. *240 The district court’s order was entered on the docket on January 15, 2013. Willing-ham’s notice of appeal was filed on March 24, 2013. * In the notice of appeal, Willing-ham appears to claim he did not receive notice of the district court’s order until March 24, 2013. Where, as here, a pro se appellant files an untimely notice of appeal offering some excuse for its untimeliness, that notice is properly construed as a motion to reopen the time to note an appeal under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(6). United States v. Feuver, 236 F.3d 725, 729 n. 7 (D.C.Cir. 2001). Accordingly, we defer action on Willingham’s motion to appoint counsel and remand the case to the district court for that court to determine whether Willingham can satisfy the requirements of Rule 4(a)(6). Ogden v. San Juan Cnty., 32 F.3d 452, 454 (10th Cir. 1994). The record, as supplemented, will then be returned to this court for further consideration.

REMANDED.
