Steve L. Thomas, Plaintiff-appellant, v. California State Department of Corrections, Defendant-appellee, 999 F.2d 544 (9th Cir. 1993)
Annotate this CaseBefore CANBY, FERNANDEZ and T.G. NELSON, Circuit Judges.
MEMORANDUM**
Steve L. Thomas appeals pro se the district court's denial of his motion to disqualify the presiding judge in his employment discrimination action under Title VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, 42 U.S.C. § 20003 et seq. We dismiss this appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
Because denial of a motion to disqualify is not a final order under 28 U.S.C. § 1291 and the district court has not certified this interlocutory order as appealable under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b), we lack jurisdiction to consider the issue raised in this appeal. See United States v. State of Washington, 573 F.2d 1121, 1122 (9th Cir. 1978).
DISMISSED.
The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed. R. App. P. 34(a); 9th Cir.R. 34-4. Accordingly, Thomas's request for oral argument is denied
