                                 2
PER CURIAM:

            In these consolidated appeals, Marie Therese Assa’ad-

Faltas seeks to appeal the district court’s orders denying her

motions   to   intervene     in   two   district   court   actions,     and   its

order denying her Fed. R. Civ. P. 59(e) motion.              We dismiss the

appeals for lack of jurisdiction because Assa’ad-Faltas did not

timely appeal.

            Parties are accorded thirty days after the entry of

the district court’s final judgment or order to note an appeal.

Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A).              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).           Although

the district court may extend the appeal period under Fed. R.

App. P. 4(a)(5), or reopen the appeal period under Fed. R. App.

P. 4(a)(6), “the timely filing of a notice of appeal in a civil

case is a jurisdictional requirement.”              Bowles v. Russell, 551

U.S. 205, 214 (2007).

            The district court’s orders were entered on the docket

on November 7, 2011, November 10, 2011, and December 14, 2011,

respectively.     The notice of appeal was filed on February 17,

2012.     Because Assa’ad-Faltas failed to file timely notices of

appeal    or   obtain   an   extension      or   reopening   of   the    appeal

periods, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss

                                        3
the appeals.          We also deny as moot Assa’ad-Faltas’s motions to

file    a    surreply       brief   and   to       place   the    appeals      in    abeyance

pending       the    Supreme       Court’s     decision      in    Arizona      v.    United

States, 132 S. Ct. 2492 (2012).

               We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal       contentions      are    adequately        presented     in   the        materials

before      the     court    and    argument       would   not    aid    the    decisional

process.



                                                                                    DISMISSED
