Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit - 905 F.2d 1537 (6th Cir. 1990) June 22, 1990

Before KEITH and NATHANIEL R. JONES, Circuit Judges, and ENGEL, Senior Circuit Judge.


ORDER

Defendants seek permission to bring an interlocutory appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b) of the district court's order denying defendant Consolidated Grain & Barge Company's motion for summary judgment on grounds that a question of fact is presented concerning whether the plaintiff is a Seaman pursuant to the Jones Act, 41 U.S.C. § 688. The plaintiff has filed a response opposing interlocutory review.

Upon consideration of this matter, we conclude that interlocutory review of the question certified is not appropriate. See Cardwell v. Chesapeake & Ohio Ry. Company, 504 F.2d 444, 446 (6th Cir. 1974). It is ORDERED that the petitions for permission to appeal be denied.
