a court-ordered deadline. Following a careful review, we conclude that the district
court did not abuse its discretion by denying the extension and dismissing the appeal.
See Smith v. Gold Dust Casino, 536 F.3d 402, 404 (8th Cir. 2008) (dismissal for
failure to prosecute or failure to comply with court order is reviewed for abuse of
discretion); In re Harlow Fay, Inc., 993 F.2d 1351, 1352-53 (8th Cir. 1993) (district
court’s denial of request for extension of filing deadline in a bankruptcy appeal is
reviewed for abuse of discretion). Accordingly, we affirm. See 8th Cir. R. 47B. We
also deny Nora’s appellate motion as moot.
