UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANTON EWING,

Plaintiff,

v.

ALIERA HEALTHCARE,

Defendant.

Case No.: 19-cv-845-CAB-LL

ORDER DENYING PLAINTIFF’S 

REQUEST FOR PERMISSION TO 

FILE INTERLOCUTORY APPEAL

Court’s order denying Plaintiff’s objection does not “involve[] a controlling question of 

law as to which there is substantial ground for difference of opinion and that an immediate 

appeal from the order may materially advance the ultimate termination of the litigation,”

see 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b), Plaintiff’s request is DENIED. Cf. Berman v. Knife River Corp., 

No. 5:11-CV-03698-PSG, 2014 WL 12647735, at *1 (N.D. Cal. July 31, 2014) (noting that
