JOHN GOODE, doing business as MR. BONES BBQ,

Plaintiff-Counter Defendant-Appellant,

VERSUS

CITY OF AUSTIN, TEXAS,

D efendant-Counter Claimant-Appellee,

FINE HOST CORPORATION

,

Defendant-Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court

for the Western District of Texas

(A-98-CV-144-SS)

November 10, 1999

Before SMITH, BARKSDALE and PARKER

, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM: *

Plaintiff John Goode appeals the grant of summary judgment in

favor of defendants. We affirm.

PROCEDURAL HISTORY AND FACTS

Between 1987 and the present, the City of Austin has enacted

a series of ordinances designed to alleviate discrimination against

women and minorities in the award of city contracts for goods and2

services. The current ordinance, passed in 1996, provides

incentives fo r city contractors to subcontract with business

enterprises owned by women and minorities (“M/WBE”). The City

employs a certification process that focuses on ownership of the

business to determine M/WBE status.

In 1992, Fine Host Corporation contracted with the City to

provide food services at city venues. Fine Host was obligated

under the contract to make good faith efforts to provide

subcontracting opportunities to food service providers certified as

minority owned businesses.

In 1996, Fine Host subcontracted with Goode, the AfricanAmerican owner of Mr. Bones Barb eque, understanding that he had

certified Mr. Bones Barbeque as a M/WBE. Although Mr. Bones had

been certifie d as an M/WBE in 1992-93, he chose not to renew the

certification after it expired in 1993. He explained that he had

privacy concerns and did not want to continue to reveal personal

a nd financial information as was required by the certification

process. In August 1996, after Goode refused to obtain a current

M/WBE certification, Fine Host terminated its contract with Goode

and replaced him with another Af r ican-American owned barbeque

vendor.

Goode brought this 42 U.S.C. §§ 1981 and 1983 suit against the

City of Austin and Fine Host alleging that he was the victim of

intentional racial discrimination w hen Fine Host terminated his

contract. Goode also asserted breach of contract claims against

Austin and Fine Host. All parties filed motions for summary3

judgment. The district court granted summary judgment for

defendants on the merits of the breach o f contract claims. The

district court dismissed Goode’s racial discrimination claims,

finding that Goode had suffered no injury-in-fact and accordingly

lacked standing. Finally, the district court denied Goode’s crossmotion for summary judgment without discussion.

JURISDICTION

Goode filed a pro se notice of appe al, stating only that he

was appealing “the decision of the trial court to dismiss his

claims[.]” However, Goode’s brief alleges that the district court

erred in denying his motion for partial summary judgment on

liability. Generally, a notice of appeal “shall designate the

judgment, ord er or part thereof being appealed.” F E D

. R. A PP

. P.

3(c)(1)(B)(1994). Because Goode did not apprise this court in his

Notice of Appeal that he intended to appeal the district court’s

denial of his motion for partial summary judgment, we do not have

jurisdiction to review that decision. See C.A. May Marine Supply

Co. v. Brunswick Corp. , 649 F.2d 1049, 1056 (5th Cir. 1981). Our

jurisdiction is therefore limited to Goode’s challenge to the

district court’s dismissal of his discrimination claims.

STANDING

Federal courts have jurisdiction to adjudicate only actual

cases or controversies. S ee Valley Forge Christian College v.

Americans United for Separation of Church and State, Inc.

, 454 U.S.

464, 471 (1982). The standing doctrine requires that a plaintiff

have “such a personal stake in the outcome of the controversy as to4

assure that concrete adverseness which sharpens the presentation of

issues upon which the court so largely depends for illumination of

difficult cons titutional questions[.] ” Baker v. Carr , 369 U.S.

186, 204 (1962). Ideological opposition to a government program is

insufficient to confer standing. S ee Valley Forge

, 454 U.S. at

473.

Goode argues that he was injured because he could not take

advantage of Austin’s M/WBE preferences without subm i tting to

allegedly intrusive certification procedure. He does not dispute

the defendants’ contention that he was free to compete for vending

contracts on an equal, race-neutral basis with all other noncertified businesses. Further, he does not attack racial

preferences, but complains that the defendants’ system did not

afford such preferential treatment completely devoid of

administrative burden on the beneficiaries.

When a “governmental actor is discriminating on the basis of

race, the resulting injury accords a basis for standing only to

those persons who are personally denied equal treatment by the

challenged discriminatory conduct.” U n ited States v. Hays , 515

U.S. 737, 734-44 (1995) (quotations omi tted). Because the

“intentionally discriminatory race and gender conscious goals” of

which Goode complains benefitted rather than injured him, we

conclude that Goode lacks standin g to attack their

constitutionality.

Based on the foregoing, we AFFIRM the district court’s

dismissal of Goode’s § 1983 action.5

AFFIRMED.
