      2                        Opinion of the Court                   23-11814

      Before JILL PRYOR, GRANT and LAGOA, Circuit Judges.
      PER CURIAM:
             This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic-
      tion. Carlese Hall appeals from the district court’s April 13, 2023
      order granting in part and denying in part respondent Erica
      Strong’s motion to dismiss Hall’s 28 U.S.C. § 2241 petition. That
      order is not ﬁnal and appealable, however, because it did not end
      the litigation on the merits in the district court.                See
      28 U.S.C. § 1291; Acheron Cap., Ltd. v. Mukamal, 22 F.4th 979, 986
      (11th Cir. 2022) (stating that a ﬁnal order ends the litigation on the
      merits and leaves nothing for the court to do but execute its judg-
      ment).
               Grounds one and two of Hall’s § 2241 petition remain pend-
       ing before the district court, and the district court did not certify its
       order for immediate review under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure
       54(b). See Supreme Fuels Trading FZE v. Sargeant, 689 F.3d 1244, 1246
       (11th Cir. 2012) (noting that an order that disposes of fewer than all
       claims against all parties to an action is not immediately appealable
       absent certiﬁcation pursuant to Rule 54(b)). Additionally, the dis-
       trict court’s April 13, 2023 order is not eﬀectively unreviewable on
       appeal from a ﬁnal order resolving the case on the merits. Plaintiﬀ
       A v. Schair, 744 F.3d 1247, 1253 (11th Cir. 2014) (explaining that a
       ruling that does not conclude the litigation may be appealed under
       the collateral order doctrine if it, inter alia, is “eﬀectively unreview-
       able on appeal from a ﬁnal judgment”).
