Id. III. CONCLUSION In light of the foregoing, we affirm the district court’s February 14; 2014 order denying Jones’s motion to reopen the time to file a notice of appeal and alternative Rule 60(b) motion. However, because Jones’s COA motion expressly evinced an intent to appeal and the district court never entered its judgment in a separate document from the October 22, 2012 order; we further order the district court clerk to docket Jones’s December 21, 2012 motion for a COA as also a construed notice of appeal from the district court’s October 22, 2012 order denying Jones’s § 2254 petition. AFFIRMED. 1 . The district court also correctly denied Jones's alternative Rule 60(b) motion. See Vencor Hosps, v. Standard Life & Accident Ins. Co., 279 F.3d 1306, 1310-11 (11th Cir.2002) (<HOLDING>). 2 . Generally, a notice of appeal in a civil
holding that a lower court cannot grant a rule 60b motion after an appeal has been filed unless the appellate court grants a limited remand upon the trial court entering a memorandum indicating its inclination to grant the rule 60b motion holding that rule 4a6 provides the exclusive method for extending a partys time to appeal for failure to receive actual notice that a judgment or order has been entered and noting that fedrcivp 60b cannot be used to circumvent rule 4a6s 180day limitation holding that appeal from denial of rule 60b motion raised for review only the district courts order of denial and not the underlying judgment itself holding that defenses under rule 60b may be waived holding attorneys failure to object does not warrant rule 60b relief
