Before WOLLMAN, BYE, and SMITH, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

      Guillermo Quinones appeals the district court’s1 order dismissing his action
under the Federal Tort Claims Act for lack of jurisdiction. After careful review, see


      1
        The Honorable D.P. Marshall Jr., United States District Judge for the Eastern
District of Arkansas, adopting the report and recommendations of the Honorable Joe
J. Volpe, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Arkansas.
Appley Bros. v. United States, 164 F.3d 1164, 1169-70 (8th Cir. 1999) (findings of
fact are reviewed for clear error and application of law is reviewed de novo), we agree
with the district court that Quinones failed to timely present his claim to the Bureau
of Prisons, and thus dismissal was proper. See 28 U.S.C. § 2401(b); Motley v. United
States, 295 F.3d 820, 822 (8th Cir. 2002); K.E.S. v. United States, 38 F.3d 1027, 1030
(8th Cir. 1994). Accordingly, we affirm, see 8th Cir. R. 47B, and we deny
Quinones’s appellate motion.
