Sherman’s motion asserted that he did not
receive a copy of the district court’s order denying his 28

motion.
Because
Sherman
filed
his
motion
to
reopen the period to note an appeal more than 180 days after the
district court’s order denying his § 2255 motion, the district
court lacked authority to reopen the appeal period.
