                                      No. 16-30918

Before KING, SOUTHWICK, and ENGELHARDT, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: *
       David Andrew Christenson appeals the district court’s denial of review
of the post-reconsideration incompleteness notice sent to him by the Court
Supervised Settlement Program authorized to administer the Deepwater
Horizon Economic and Property Damages Settlement.                    Also pending is a
motion for reconsideration of the clerk’s order denying Christenson’s motion
for leave to file a third supplemental memorandum.
       This court must always be mindful of its jurisdiction and may consider
the issue sua sponte. Mosley v. Cozby, 813 F.2d 659, 660 (5th Cir. 1987). In a
civil case, a timely notice of appeal is a jurisdictional requirement. Bowles v.
Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 214 (2007). The notice of appeal in a civil action must
be filed within 30 days of entry of the judgment or order from which the appeal
is taken. FED. R. APP. P. 4(a)(1)(A). The district court’s judgment denying
Christenson’s request for review was entered on the docket on July 7, 2016.
The notice of appeal was filed on August 11, 2016, after the 30-day deadline
for filing a notice of appeal.
       Thus, the notice of appeal was untimely, and this court lacks jurisdiction
over the appeal of the district court’s denial of review. See Bowles, 551 U.S. at
214. This appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction. See id. All pending
motions are DENIED as moot.




       * Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not
be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH
CIR. R. 47.5.4.
