No. 87-5443
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
August 24, 1987.
ORDER

1
Before KEITH and ALAN E. NORRIS, Circuit Judges, and GIBBONS, District Judge.*


2
This matter is before the court upon consideration of the defendant-appellee's motion to consolidate this appeal with case number 87-5460 and dismiss the instant appeal.  Appellant Friend has responded.  Our examination of the pleadings and record leads us to conclude that appellant Friend lacks standing to bring this appeal.  See Guthrie v. Evans, 815 F.2d 626 (11th Cir. 1987).


3
It is therefore ORDERED that the motion to dismiss be granted and the motion to consolidate be denied as moot.
