United States Third Circuit

In an action for employment discrimination and related claims, plaintiff's appeal of the district court's grant of the employer's motion for summary judgment is dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction as the district court improperly granted plaintiff's motion for an extension of time to file a notice of appeal under Rule 4(a)(5), in erroneously finding that plaintiff established "excusable neglect" under the rule.
