No. 91-3085.
United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.
Feb. 8, 1991.

1
Before RYAN and SUHRHEINRICH, Circuit Judges, and SILER, Chief District Judge.*

ORDER

2
This appeal has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.


3
A review of the documents before the court indicates that plaintiff initiated a civil rights action against seven defendants.  By opinion and judgment filed January 8, 1991, the district court dismissed Mary Ann Ward and Tower Eighty Management as defendants.  Plaintiff appealed on January 14, 1991, from the January 8 order.


4
Absent Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b) certification, an order disposing of fewer than all the claims or parties involved in the action is not appealable.    Liberty Mut. Ins. Co. v. Wetzel, 424 U.S. 737, 742-45 (1976);  Solomon v. Aetna Life Ins. Co., 782 F.2d 58, 59-60 (6th Cir.1986).  No Rule 54(b) certification was made in the instant case.  The final decision of the district court has not been entered during the pendency of this appeal;  therefore, this court lacks jurisdiction.    See Gillis v. United States Dep't of HHS, 759 F.2d 565, 569 (6th Cir.1985).


5
It is ORDERED that the appeal be, and it hereby is, dismissed.  Rule 9(b)(1), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
