Before ANDERSON, McKAY and LUCERO, Circuit Judges.


1
ORDER AND JUDGMENT*


2
Thelma Patterson was sued in bankruptcy court by Ken Spears, the trustee of her daughter's bankruptcy estate, and by Washita State Bank, one of her daughter's creditors.  The bankruptcy court issued its final order, determining, inter alia, that Native Elm, a mobile home park that Ms. Patterson claimed to own, was her daughter's corporate alter ego and therefore part of the bankruptcy estate.  Patterson then appealed to the District Court for the Western District of Oklahoma.  The district court affirmed several elements of the order below, but reversed and remanded the bankruptcy court's determination of Native Elm's alter ego status.  Patterson now appeals the district court's affirmance of the bankruptcy court.


3
We must dismiss Patterson's appeal for lack of jurisdiction.  For appellate jurisdiction to lie, the district court must have entered a final order.  See 28 U.S.C. § 158(d);  In re Buckner, 66 F.3d 263, 265 (10th Cir.1995).  It has not done so.


4
The district court determined that the bankruptcy court applied an incorrect legal standard to determine whether Native Elm was the daughter's alter ego, and reversed and remanded for "consideration of whether [Patterson's daughter] used Native Elm as part of a design or scheme to perpetrate a fraud."   Appellant's App. at 74.  "A district court order reversing the bankruptcy court and remanding for significant further proceedings is not final and appealable under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d)."  Buckner, 66 F.3d at 265.   The proceedings on remand, involving complex determinations of fact, are more than "mere 'ministerial' computations involving little judicial discretion," and therefore constitute "significant further proceedings."  Id. (quoting Rubner & Kutner, P.C. v. United States Trustee (In re Lederman Enters., Inc.), 997 F.2d 1321, 1323 (10th Cir.1993)).  Hence, no final, appealable order has yet been entered, and we are without jurisdiction.


5
DISMISSED.


6
The mandate shall issue forthwith.
