Robert Franklin Bruce, Louisiana prisoner #397176, filed a § 1983 complaint against several officials at the Winn Parish Jail. The district court dismissed the complaint with prejudice. Bruce filed what was effectively a motion under Rule 59(e) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure, which suspended the period to file a notice of appeal. See Bass v. U.S. Dep’t of Agriculture, 211 F.3d 959, 962 (5th Cir. 2000). The district court again entered judgment dismissing the complaint with prejudice. Bruce filed a notice of appeal.

The timing of Bruce’s notice of appeal raises a threshold question regarding this court’s jurisdiction, which we must examine on our own motion, if necessary. See Mosley v. Cozby, 813 F.2d 659, 660 (5th Cir. 1987). In a civil case, the timely filing of a notice of appeal “is a jurisdictional requirement.” Bowles v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214, 127 S.Ct. 2360, 168 L.Ed.2d 96 (2007).

A party has 30 days from entry of judgment in a civil case to file a notice of appeal. Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1)(A). Although the appeal period was suspended when Bruce filed his motion for reconsideration, it began to run anew upon entry of the judgment disposing of that motion. See Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(4)(A)(iv). The judgment was entered on December 5, 2012, making Bruce’s notice of appeal due on January 4, 2013. It was not received until January 9, 2013.

Bruce is a prisoner, and therefore, his notice of appeal is deemed timely if depos *644 ited in the internal mail system on or before the filing deadline. See Fed. R.App. P. 4(c). Further, pro se prisoner pleadings in general are deemed filed at the time they are delivered to prison officials for mailing. Medley v. Thaler, 660 F.3d 833, 835 (5th Cir. 2011). However, the record does not indicate when Bruce deposited his notice of appeal in the prison’s internal mail system or, alternatively, when he delivered it to prison officials for mailing. Thus, we cannot determine whether we have jurisdiction.

Accordingly, we hold the appeal in abeyance and remand for the limited purpose of determining when Bruce deposited his notice of appeal in the internal mail system or delivered it to prison officials for mailing.

APPEAL HELD IN ABEYANCE; LIMITED REMAND.
