MEMORANDUM**


2
Diana J. Bell appeals pro se the district court's summary judgment in favor of the Secretary of Health and Human Services in Bell's action requesting that the Secretary issue an appealable final agency decision, following an EEOC order that the Secretary further investigate Bell's employment discrimination claims.


3
We agree with the district court's finding in its order dated August 16, 1996 that the Secretary had in fact issued a final appealable decision on 10/11/91, and with its conclusion that on this basis Bell's action was moot.1  Accordingly, we affirm.


4
AFFIRMED.



*
 The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument.  See Fed.R.App.P. 34(a);  9th Cir.R. 34-4
