OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

Appellant noted these appeals outside the thirty-day appeal period established by Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(1), failed to obtain extensions of the appeal periods within the additional thirty-day period provided by Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(5), and is not entitled to relief under Fed. R.App. P. 4(a)(6). 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 timely appeals or obtain extensions of the appeal periods deprives this Court of jurisdiction to consider this case. We therefore dismiss the appeals. With regard to No. 95-1058, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis, and grant Appellee's motion to dismiss the appeal as untimely. We also grant Appellee's motion to dismiss the appeal as untimely in No. 95-1109. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
