Vincent Williams, federal prisoner #27040-034, appeals the district court’s denial of his Fed.R.Civ.P. 60(b)(4) motion for relief from a criminal order of forfeiture. Williams argues that his Rule 60(b)(4) motion was proper because he was raising a jurisdictional challenge to his conviction.

This court reviews a district court’s ruling on a Rule 60(b)(4) motion de novo. Carter v. Fenner, 136 F.3d 1000, 1005 (5th Cir. 1998). Rule 60(b) provides relief from judgment in civil cases, not in criminal cases. See United States v. O’Keefe, 169 F.3d 281, 289 (5th Cir. 1999). Accordingly, the district court did not err in denying Williams’s Rule 60(b) motion. Moreover, to the extent that Williams’s Rule 60(b) motion was a successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion, Williams had not obtained the requisite authorization to file a successive § 2255 motion. See Gonzalez v. Crosby, 545 U.S. 524, 529-31, 125 S.Ct. 2641, 162 L.Ed.2d 480 (2005); United States v. Rich, 141 F.3d 550, 551-53 (5th Cir. 1998); Fier-ro v. Johnson, 197 F.3d 147, 151 (5th Cir. 1999); 28 U.S.C. §§ 2244(b)(3)(A), 2255.

The district court’s judgment is AFFIRMED.
