Annotate this CaseBefore KEITH and RALPH B. GUY, Jr., Circuit Judges, and LIVELY, Senior Circuit Judge.
ORDER
This appeal has been referred to a panel of the court pursuant to Rule 9(a), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
Review of the record discloses that appellant filed a complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 in the United States District Court for the Western District of Kentucky. On July 13, 1990, however, a magistrate for the district court dismissed that action pursuant to a settlement agreement executed by the parties. Appellant then filed this appeal.
This court lacks jurisdiction over the appeal. Parties who have consented to the entry of a judgment dismissing a cause of action pursuant to a settlement agreement generally have no status to take an appeal from that action. White v. Commissioner, 776 F.2d 976, 977-78 (11th Cir. 1985) (per curiam).
Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the appeal be and hereby is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Rule 9(b) (1), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
