Mangarella

seeks

to

appeal

the

district court’s order denying his 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion.

We

dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the notice
of appeal was not timely filed.
When the United States or its officer or agency is a
party, the notice of appeal must be filed no more than sixty
days after the entry of the district court’s final judgment or
order, Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B), 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).

district court did not receive that document.
The materials
received by this court and transmitted to the district court
pursuant to Fed. R. App. P. 4(d) were dated August 8, 2014.
