US Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit - 905 F.2d 1537 (6th Cir. 1990) June 21, 1990

Before KRUPANSKY and ALAN E. NORRIS, Circuit Judges, and WENDELL A. MILES, Senior District Judge* .

ORDER

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

It appears from the record that the district court entered an order on April 7, 1989, denying appellants' motion for the appointment of counsel in this civil rights action. Appellants have appealed from that order. The appellants' action is still pending in district court but has been stayed during the pendency of this appeal. An order denying appointment of counsel is not appealable. Henry v. City of Detroit Manpower Dep't, 763 F.2d 757, 764 (6th Cir.) (en banc), cert. denied, 474 U.S. 1036 (1985).

Accordingly, it is ORDERED that the appeal be, and it hereby is, dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Rule 9(b) (1), Rules of the Sixth Circuit.

 *

The Honorable Wendell A. Miles, Senior U.S. District Judge for the Western District of Michigan, sitting by designation
