No. 87-3589
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
August 27, 1987.
ORDER

1
Before RALPH B. GUY, JR., and BOGGS, Circuit Judges, and SUHRHEINRICH, District Judge.*

2
This matter is before the court upon consideration of the appellant's response to this court's order directing him to show cause why appeal number 87-3589 should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.

3
It appears from the record that the judgment in civil action number C86-7179 was entered April 24, 1987, and that a notice of appeal was filed on April 28, 1987 (appeal number 87-3419).  A second notice of appeal filed June 17, 1987 (appeal number 87-3589) was 22 days late.  Fed. R. App.  P. 4(a) and 26(a).

4
Appellant's response to this court's order advises that the notice of appeal filed June 17, 1987, was not intended to be filed in civil action C86-7179.  Although civil action C86-7179 was mentioned in the body of the document, civil action C86-7483 was the only number placed at the top of the document by the style of the case.

5
It is ORDERED that appeal number 87-3589 be dismissed.  The dismissal of appeal number 87-3589 does not affect the pendency of appeal number 87-3419.
