No. 89-5075.
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
March 24, 1989.

Before KRUPANSKY and DAVID A. NELSON, Circuit Judges, and BAILEY BROWN, Senior Circuit Judge.

ORDER

1
Plaintiff-debtor appeals from a district court order concluding that the bankruptcy court properly transferred venue of his bankruptcy petition and denying leave to appeal.  Several defendant-creditors move for dismissal on the grounds that there is no final appealable order.  The debtor responds in opposition.

2
The courts of appeals have jurisdiction in appeals from all "final decisions, judgments, orders, and decrees" rendered by a district court acting in review of decisions by a bankruptcy judge.  28 U.S.C. Sec. 158(d).  However, this court has no jurisdiction over an interlocutory appeal from an order denying leave to appeal;  see e.g. In re Moody, 817 F.2d 365 (5th Cir.1987);  In re American Colonial Broadcasting Corp., 758 F.2d 794 (1st Cir.1985);  In re Tidewater Group, Inc., 734 F.2d 794 (11th Cir.1984);  In re Cash Currency Exchange, 762 F.2d 542 (7th Cir.), cert. denied, 474 U.S. 904 (1985);  or, from orders transferring venue.   Lemon v. Druffel, 253 F.2d 680 (6th Cir.1958), cert. denied, 358 U.S. 821 (1958);  In re Dalton, 733 F.2d 710 (10th Cir.1984), cert. dismissed, Dalton v. United States, 469 U.S. 1185 (1985).

It is ORDERED that the motion to dismiss is granted.
