UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

_________________________________

LARRY BRANCH, 

 Plaintiff - Appellant,

v.

UNITED PARCEL SERVICE, 

 Defendant - Appellee.

No. 19-1357

(D.C. No. 1:18-CV-03358-PAB-KLM)

(D. Colo.)

ORDER

_________________________________

Before MORITZ, EID, and CARSON, Circuit Judges.

_________________________________

This court lacks jurisdiction because no final judgment has been entered by the 

district court. 

The plaintiff appeals an order of the district court dismissing his state assault 

claim. The remaining claims are still proceeding in the district court.

This court has jurisdiction to review only final decisions, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and 

specific types of interlocutory orders not applicable here. A final decision is one that 

disposes of all issues on the merits and leaves nothing for the court to do but execute the 

judgment. Van Cauwenberghe v. Biard, 486 U.S. 517, 521 (1988).

Rather than address the jurisdictional issue as directed by this court, the plaintiff 

only addresses the merits of the district court’s dismissal.
