Unpublished Dispositionwilford Larry Brooks, Plaintiff-appellant, v. United States of America, Defendant-appellee, 918 F.2d 957 (6th Cir. 1990)

ORDER

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

A review of the documents before the court indicates that the district court entered on September 15, 1990, an order denying appellant's motion for an enlargement of time to respond to the magistrate's report and recommendation. The appellant appealed from that order.

This court lacks jurisdiction as purely administrative decisions of a district court may not be appealed under 28 U.S.C. § 1291. See In re Rini, 782 F.2d 603, 606-07 (6th Cir. 1986). In addition, this is not a final, appealable decision as it does not terminate all issues presented in the litigation on the merits, leaving nothing to be done except to enforce by execution what has been determined. See Firestone Tire & Rubber Co. v. Risjord, 449 U.S. 368, 373 (1981).

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.
