UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

 

RONALD E. FIELDS,

 Plaintiff - Appellant, 

v. 

WALGREENS COMPANY,

a/k/a Walgreens Co., 

 Defendant - Appellee.

No. 10-1129

(D.C. No. 1:08-CV-01704-PAB-MJW)

ORDER

Before LUCERO, GORSUCH, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.

The court has considered appellant’s response to its show cause order

issued on April 2, 2010 and orders that this appeal be dismissed for lack of

appellate jurisdiction. 

No final, appealable order or judgment has yet been entered by the district

court. Although the district court has granted summary judgment as to plaintiff’s

constructive discharge claim, the remainder of plaintiff’s case remains pending

with the district court and no certification under Fed. R. Civ. P. 54 (b) has been

granted. Accordingly, this court lacks jurisdiction to consider this appeal. See

Atiya v. Salt Lake County, 988 F.2d 1013, 1016 (10th Cir. 1993). This court does

not have jurisdiction under the collateral order doctrine, see Cohen v. Beneficial

Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949), and it does not appear that any other

exception to the final judgment rule applies. 

When the district court enters a final, appealable judgment, plaintiff may

appeal, if he wishes. 

APPEAL DISMISSED.
