         On Appeal from the United States District Court

                          (M0-94-CV-129)

                         October 7, 1996

Before POLITZ, Chief Judge, SMITH and DUHÈ, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:*

     Ed Krevit, Rusty Hill, and Gary Painter, Third Party Defendants-

Appellants, appeal the district court’s rejection, at this stage of

the proceedings, of their assertion of qualified immunity from the

claims of Third Party Plaintiffs. Having considered the briefs and

oral arguments of counsel, and pertinent parts of the record, and

finding that genuine issues of material fact currently exist, we

conclude that we lack jurisdiction and the appeal is, accordingly,

DISMISSED.

     *
      Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4.
