UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

FLOYD PERRYMAN,

Plaintiff,

v.

JASDEEP BAL, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:14-cv-680-WBS-EFB P

ORDER

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding pro se with a civil rights action pursuant to 42 

U.S.C. § 1983. He seeks an order from this court certifying its December 1, 2015 order for 

interlocutory appeal.1 ECF No. 45. That order denied plaintiff’s request to stay this action so that 

he could file an amended complaint, conduct further discovery, and obtain the court’s 

appointment of an expert witness. ECF No. 44. 

An interlocutory appeal of a non-final order may be certified if the district court 

determines that “such order involves 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.” 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b). The order in question 

does not meet this standard.

Plaintiff has not demonstrated that there is a controlling question of law at stake or that an 

interlocutory appeal will facilitate disposition of this action or materially advance the ultimate 

termination of this action. 

Accordingly, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that plaintiff’s request for the court to grant him 

permission for an immediate interlocutory appeal (ECF No. 45) is denied.

Dated: January 20, 2016
