PER CURIAM

        Robert McClees, proceeding pro se, appeals orders of the United States District


*
 This disposition is not an opinion of the full Court and pursuant to I.O.P. 5.7 does not
constitute binding precedent.
Court for the District of New Jersey denying post-judgment motions that he filed after the

dismissal of his complaint. We will dismiss McClees’ appeal for lack of jurisdiction

because it was untimely filed.

       McClees filed a complaint against various defendants raising, among other things,

a claim under the Fair Debt Collection Practices Act. On October 3, 2018, the District

Court dismissed the complaint without prejudice pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B)

for failure to state a claim, gave McClees 30 days to file a motion to reopen his case and a

proposed amended complaint, and ordered that if he did not do so, the dismissal would

convert to one with prejudice. The District Court also denied McClees’ motion to stay

his eviction from his home.

       After 30 days passed, McClees filed an amended complaint and another motion to

stay his eviction. On November 20, 2018, the District Court denied the motion, ordered

that the matter remain closed, and dismissed the matter with prejudice. 1 The District

Court found McClees’ filings substantively the same as his previous filings and

insufficient to reopen the matter.

       On December 27, 2018, McClees filed a motion for reconsideration and/or for

relief pursuant to Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 60(b). He filed a motion for a default

judgment against the defendants thereafter. In an order entered July 25, 2019, the District

Court denied both motions. McClees filed a notice of appeal on August 29, 2019.


1
  The District Court also noted that its earlier dismissal without prejudice had converted
to a dismissal with prejudice.
                                               2
Although he did not identify the order he was appealing, he states in his brief that he

appeals both the November 20, 2018, and July 25, 2019, orders. 2

       We have jurisdiction to review the District Court’s post-judgment orders pursuant

to 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Ohntrup v. Firearms Center, Inc., 802 F.2d 676, 678 (3d Cir. 1986)

(per curiam). We do not have jurisdiction, however, when an appeal is untimely. Bowles

v. Russell, 551 U.S. 205, 209-10 (2007). McClees was required to file his notice of

appeal within 30 days after entry of the order appealed from. Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(A).

He filed his August 29, 2019, notice of appeal more than 30 days after the November 20,

2018, order was entered. McClees’ December 27, 2018, motion for reconsideration

and/or for relief under Rule 60(b) was not filed within 28 days of that order and did not

toll the time to file a notice of appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(4)(A); Fed. R. Civ. P.

59(e). In addition, McClees’ August 29, 2019, notice of appeal is untimely as to the July

25, 2019, order denying his December 27, 2018, motion and his motion for a default

judgment because the 30-day time to appeal expired on Monday, August 26, 2019.3



2
 The fact that McClees did not identify the orders in his notice of appeal is not
problematic as the named defendants have never appeared and are not prejudiced. See
Han Tak Lee v. Houtzdale SCI, 798 F.3d 159, 163-64 (3d Cir. 2015).
3
  Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 58, under which the time to appeal begins to run at a
later date when a judgment is not set out in a separate document, does not apply to the
denial of the December 27, 2018, motion or the motion for a default judgment, which we
construe as a motion under Rule 60(b) because McClees needed to reopen the final
judgment against him to seek a default judgment against the defendants. See Fed. R. Civ.
P. 58(a) (excepting orders disposing of Rule 59 and Rule 60 motions from the Rule); see
also Fed. R. Civ. P. 60(b) (listing the grounds for relief from a final judgment).
                                              3
Finally, McClees did not file a motion to extend or reopen the time to file a notice of

appeal and the time to do so has expired. See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(5), 4(a)(6).

       Accordingly, because the notice of appeal is untimely, we will dismiss the appeal

for lack of jurisdiction.
