1Opinion of the Court

BENNETT, Circuit Judge.

This is an appeal of a judgment of the United States Claims Court, 1 Cl.Ct. 241 (1982), denying appellant Sofarelli damages and/or an equitable adjustment under the “Changes” clause of a government construction contract. The government (appel-lee) asserts that this court lacks jurisdiction to hear this appeal, as appellant did not file a notice of appeal within 60 days after entry of the judgment by the Claims Court, as required by Fed.R.App.P. 4(a)(1) (Fed. Cir.R. 10(a) and Cl.Ct.Rule 72). We agree and therefore dismiss the appeal as untimely-
