United States Court of Appeals, Eighth Circuit.
Submitted:  October 22, 1996Filed:  November 27, 1996

Before BEAM, HANSEN, and MORRIS SHEPPARD ARNOLD, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM.

1
Charles Gordon Long brought this action against a physician and four state officials, claiming constitutional and state law violations, after his prescription pain medication was withheld from him during his pretrial detention at a state correctional facility.  The four state officials moved for summary judgment, the district court1 granted the motion, and Long appeals.

2
The order granting summary judgment to four of the five defendants was not a final, appealable order, and we therefore lack jurisdiction over this appeal.  See 28 U.S.C. § 1291;  Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b).  Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal.
