Welch, 729 F.2d 1084 (6th Cir.1984);   Trufant v. Autocon, Inc., 729 F.2d 308 (5th Cir.1984).   The magistrate in the instant action was not given plenary jurisdiction.

It is ORDERED that appeal number 86-6084 be and hereby is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.   The dismissal of appeal number 86-6084 does not affect the pendency of appeal number 86-6085.
