ORDER

Before BRISCOE, LUCERO, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.

This is an appeal from a non-final district court order. The court orders

that the appeal be dismissed for lack of appellate jurisdiction. 

Mr. Young has filed a notice of appeal from the district court’s order of

May 2, 2008, denying his objections/motions to reconsider two orders issued by

the magistrate judge regarding pre-trial matters in his pending § 1983 action. 

“Federal appellate jurisdiction generally depends on the existence of a

decision by the District Court that ‘ends the litigation on the merits and leaves

nothing for the court to do but execute the judgment.’” Federal Deposit Insurance

Corp. v. McGlamery, 74 F.3d 218, 221 (10th Cir. 1996) (quoting Coopers &

Lybrand v. Livesay, 437 U.S. 463, 467 (1978)). 

The district court order appealed does not constitute a final or immediately

appealable decision under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 or any recognized exception to the

final judgment rule. Although Mr. Young references 28 U.S.C. § 1292 in his

notice of appeal, the order being appealed is not one of the interlocutory orders

referenced in § 1292 (a) and no certification under § 1292 (b) has been requested

or granted. 

APPEAL DISMISSED.
