*96 Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

David Henry Rogers appeals the district court’s orders denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 (2012) petition and denying his motion for reconsideration. We dismiss the appeal.

First, Rogers did not timely appeal the district court’s order denying his § 2254 petition. Absent circumstances warranting tolling, parties are accorded thirty days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or order to note an appeal, Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(A), unless the district court extends the appeal period under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(5), or reopens the appeal period under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(6). “[T]he timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil ease is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007).

The district court’s order denying Rogers’ § 2254 petition was entered on the docket on December 13, 2013. Rogers did not timely file his motion for reconsideration, nor did he obtain an extension or reopening of the appeal period. Accordingly, Rogers’ notice of appeal, filed approximately five months after the denial of his § 2254 petition, was untimely. * Accordingly, we dismiss Rogers’ appeal of the denial of his § 2254 petition for lack of jurisdiction.

Moreover, to the extent Rogers appeals the denial of his motion for reconsideration, he fails to show his entitlement to a certificate of appealability. 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(1)(A) (2012). A certificate of ap-pealability will not issue absent “a substantial showing of the denial of a constitutional right.” 28 U.S.C. § 2253(c)(2) (2012). When the district court denies relief on the merits, a prisoner satisfies this standard by demonstrating that reasonable jurists would find that the district court’s assessment of the constitutional claims is debatable or wrong. Slack v. McDaniel, 529 U.S. 473, 484, 120 S.Ct. 1595, 146 L.Ed.2d 542 (2000); see Miller-El v. Cockrell, 537 U.S. 322, 336-38, 123 S.Ct. 1029, 154 L.Ed.2d 931 (2003). When the district court denies relief on procedural grounds, the prisoner must demonstrate both that the dispositive procedural ruling is debatable, and that the petition states a debatable claim of the denial of a constitutional right. Slack, 529 U.S. at 484-85, 120 S.Ct. 1595.

We have independently reviewed the record and conclude that Rogers has not made the requisite showing. Accordingly, we deny a certificate of appealability, deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, and dismiss the remainder of the appeal. 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.
