PER CURIAM.

-- 1 of 2 --

1The Honorable Donovan W. Frank, United States District Judge for the District
of Minnesota, adopting the report and recommendation of the Honorable John M.
Mason, United States Magistrate Judge for the District of Minnesota.
-2-
Salvatore Ballato seeks to appeal the district court’s1 28 U.S.C. § 1915A
dismissal of his Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of the Fed. Bureau of
Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971) suit. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction
because Ballato’s notice of appeal was untimely. See Fed. R. App. P 4(a)(1), 4(c)(1);
Burgs v. Johnson County, Iowa, 79 F.3d 701, 702 (8th Cir. 1996) (per curiam) (timely
notice of appeal is mandatory and jurisdictional). We deny Ballato’s motion to expand
the record.
Accordingly, the appeal is dismissed.
A true copy.
Attest:
CLERK, U.S. COURT OF APPEALS, EIGHTH CIRCUIT.
