No. 14-30208

AKER KVAERNER IHI, a General Partnership,

 Defendant - Appellant

Appeal from the United States District Court 

for the Western District of Louisiana

USDC Nos. 2:10-CV-278 & 2:10-CV-1041

Before KING, JOLLY, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

Having considered the parties’ briefs and the supplemental letter briefs

filed pursuant to our directive, we DISMISS this case because the order

compelling arbitration is an interlocutory order over which we lack appellate 

jurisdiction under the United Nations Convention on the Recognition and 

Enforcement of Foreign Arbitral Awards, 9 U.S.C. §§ 201–08, and the Federal 

Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1–16. See Sw. Elec. Power Co. v. Certain 

Underwriters at Lloyds of London, 772 F.3d 384 (5th Cir. 2014). The motion 

to amend appellate caption is DENIED as moot. 

APPEAL DISMISSED; CASE REMANDED (to district court); MOTION 

DENIED.

* Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not 

be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH 

CIR. R. 47.5.4.
