PER CURIAM:
The Ford Family (“Ford”) seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing
Ford’s complaint for failure to state a claim, and appeals the order denying Ford’s
postjudgment motions. Because the notice of appeal was filed more than 60 days after the
court entered the order dismissing the complaint, that order is not properly before this court.
See Fed. R. App. P. 4(a)(1)(B). With respect to the court’s order denying Ford’s
postjudgment motions, we have reviewed the record and find no reversible error. We
therefore affirm the district court’s postjudgment order. We dispense with oral argument
because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before this
court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
AFFIRMED
