Leroy HAYES, Jr. Plaintiff-Appellant v. CITY OF SAINT PAUL, MINNESOTA; JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. Defendants-Appellees
[Unpublished]
Leroy Hayes appeals after the district court 1 entered an adverse judgment and denied his post-judgment motions. Upon careful review, we conclude that Hayes’s notice of appeal was timely only as to the order denying his last post-judgment motion and that the district court did not abuse its discretion in denying that motion. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A) (stating that, in a civil case, the notice of appeal must be filed within 30 days after the entry of the judgment or the order appealed from), 4(a)(4)(A) (stating that if a party files, inter alia, a timely post-judgment motion, the time to appeal runs from the entry of the order disposing of the last such remaining motion); Dieser v. Cont’l Cas. Co., 440 F.3d 920, 923 (8th Cir. 2006) (noting that the requirement of a timely notice of appeal is mandatory and jurisdictional); see also Peterson v. Travelers Indem. Co., 867 F.3d 992, 997 (8th Cir. 2017) (stating that a motion for reconsideration not described by any particular rule of civil procedure is typically construed as a motion under Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) or 60(b) and that the denial of such a motion is reviewed for an abuse of discretion); cf. Arnold v. Wood, 238 F.3d 992, 997-98 (8th Cir. 2001) (concluding that the denial of a Rule 60(b) motion was not an abuse of discretion where the motion largely reasserted contentions made in earlier motions).
Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
