United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
5/28/86

APPEAL DISMISSED
S.D.Ohio
ORDER
BEFORE:  JONES, CONTIE and MILBURN, Circuit Judges.

1
On February 18, 1986, the district court entered judgment in favor of plaintiffs/appellants on their claim of fraud in a stock transaction and in favor of defendants/appellees on their claim that appellants breached the contract between the parties.  On February 28, 1986, appellees moved for a new trial or judgment notwithstanding the verdict.  The motion for a new trial was granted on March 25, 1986; appellants filed a notice of appeal from that order on April 11, 1986.

2
Appellees now move to dismiss this appeal as being prosecuted from a nonappealable order.  Appellants have responded in opposition thereto.

3
An order granting a new trial is not immediately appealable.  Allied Chemical Corp. v. Daiflon, Inc., 449 U.S. 33, 34 (1980); National Polymer Products, Inc. v. Borg-Warner Corp., 660 F.2d 171 (6th Cir. 1981).

4
It is therefore ORDERED that the appeal be dismissed.
