             The Honorable Robert Holmes Bell, District Judge for the U.S.
District Court for the Western District of Michigan, sitting by designation.
      Pierre Marshall appeals from the district court’s order denying his motion

for reconsideration of an oral September 1995 order1 denying an oral motion for a

complete resentencing. We have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and we

affirm.

      Marshall’s motion for reconsideration was filed almost 15 years after the

oral order and is therefore untimely. The Federal Rules require motions for

reconsideration to be filed within the time for appeal, which in 1995 was 10 days

after the order. Fed. R. App. P. 4(b) (1995); see also Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.

Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 546 (1949) (designating as final orders that leave no

question “open, unfinished, or inconclusive”); United States v. Belgarde, 300 F.3d

1177, 1180 (9th Cir. 2002).

      Additionally, we already rejected Marshall’s argument that he is entitled to a

full resentencing because his conviction never became final due to the district

court’s failure to enter an amended judgment following his direct appeal in 1995.

United States v. Marshall, 350 F. App’x. 151 (9th Cir. 2009). Marshall’s appeal is

therefore barred under the law of the case. In the 2009 appeal, we also determined

that his collateral attack on the judgment would be “properly raised in a motion



      1
         We note that the district court’s September 11, 1995 minute order does not
reflect Marshall’s oral motion or its denial. However, as the parties do not dispute
that the oral order issued, we assume that the order exists for purposes of this
appeal.
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255.” Id. at 152. Even if we were to treat Marshall’s

“motion for reconsideration” as a § 2255 motion, the district court was correct to

deny Marshall’s motion as he did not obtain permission from this court to file a

second § 2255 challenge. 28 U.S.C. § 2255(h).

      AFFIRMED.
