                                   ____________

Before SMITH, BOWMAN, and KELLY, Circuit Judges.
                          ____________

PER CURIAM.

       David Jeep filed a notice of appeal while this action was pending. After careful
review, we dismiss the appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction because Jeep’s notice
of appeal did not designate the order, judgment, or part thereof that he was appealing.
See Fed. R. App. P. 3(c)(1)(B) (notice of appeal must designate judgment, order, or
part thereof being appealed); Smith v. Barry, 502 U.S. 244, 248 (1992) (Rule 3
requirements are jurisdictional). We also deny as moot Jeep’s pending motion for
leave to appeal in forma pauperis.
