24                                 MEMORANDUM OPINION

25 KENNEDY, Judge.
 1        Defendant appeals the entry of default judgment in favor of Plaintiff. We

 2 proposed to hold that we have no jurisdiction to hear the appeal because we have been

 3 presented with no final order on Defendant’s post-judgment motion to reconsider the

 4 default judgment. There is no indication from the record proper or from the district

 5 court’s case lookup site that a final order was entered in this case. Defendant has filed

 6 a response to our proposed disposition, but has not complied with our request for a

 7 final order from the district court.

 8        Defendant asks this Court to remand the case to the district court “for a

 9 substantive hearing on [Defendant’s] Motion to Set Aside Default Judgment.” As

10 explained in our notice, without a final order from the district court, we do not have

11 jurisdiction over this appeal, and we are without jurisdiction to address the merits of

12 the appeal or to grant any other relief requested by Defendant. We dismiss the appeal

13 for the reasons discussed in our calendar notice.

14        IT IS SO ORDERED.
