No. 89-6563.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted April 28, 1989.Decided June 12, 1989.

Lyskoski T. Washington, appellant pro se.
Before K.K. HALL, PHILLIPS, and CHAPMAN, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:


1
Lyskoski T. Washington, a state prisoner, submitted his notice of appeal to prison authorities outside the 30-day period established by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(1).*   It was therefore untimely.    See Houston v. Lack, 56 U.S.L.W. 4728 (U.S. June 24, 1988) (No. 87-5428).  In addition, he failed to move for an extension of the appeal period within the additional 30-day period provided by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(5).


2
The time periods established by Fed.R.App.P. 4 are "mandatory and jurisdictional."    Browder v. Director, Dep't of Corrections, 434 U.S. 257, 264 (1978) (quoting United States v. Robinson, 361 U.S. 220, 229 (1960)).  Appellant's failure to note a timely appeal or obtain an extension of the appeal period deprives this Court of jurisdiction to consider the case.  We therefore deny a certificate of probable cause to appeal and dismiss the appeal.  We dispense with oral argument because the dispositive issues recently have been decided authoritatively.


3
DISMISSED.



*
 For the purposes of this appeal, we assume that the date Washington placed on the notice of appeal is the earliest date he would have submitted it to prison authorities
