Decided Dec. 7, 1965.

David H. Moskowitz, Bristol, Pa. (Sirott & Verderame, Bristol, Pa., on the-brief), for appellee.
Before HASTIE, GANEY and FREEDMAN, Circuit Judges.

Opinion:
PER CURIAM:
This appeal has been taken from an order of the district court denying a defendant's motion to dismiss as res judicata an action for negligent injury. No further dispositive action has occurred in the trial court.
While the granting of a motion to dismiss may be a final judgment, the denial of such a motion lacks the finality which is essential .to support an immediate appeal.
The appeal will be dismissed for want of jurisdiction.
