Gloria QUINONES, Appellant, v. Eric K. SHINSEKI, Secretary of Veteran Affairs, Appellee.

[UNPUBLISHED]

PER CURIAM.

Gloria Quinones appeals the district court's dismissal of her Title VII action claiming employment discrimination. After careful de novo review, see Coons v. Mineto, 410 F.3d 1036, 1039 (8th Cir. 2005); we agree with the district court that the record conclusively shows Quinones failed to exhaust her administrative remedies because she did not timely file her formal discrimination complaint, see McAdams v. Reno, 64 F.3d 1137, 1141 (8th Cir. 1995) (exhaustion requirement). Further, Quinones has failed to show that exceptional circumstances beyond her control contributed to the untimely filing for purposes of equitable tolling. See T.L. ex rel, Ingram v. United States, 443 F.3d 956, 963 (8th Cir. 2006) (discussing equitable tolling).

The record shows that Quinones spells her name with a tilde over the first "n" in her name, despite how it appears on the docket sheet.

The Honorable Thomas C. Mummert, United States Magistrate Judge for the Eastern District of Missouri, to whom the case was referred for final disposition by consent of the parties pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(c).

Accordingly, we affirm the judgment of the district court.
