2 Opinion of the Court 25-11643

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of Florida D.C. Docket No. 5:24-cv-00280-MW-MJF ____________________

Before JORDAN, BRANCH, and LAGOA, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdiction because it is not taken from a final or otherwise appealable order. Curtis Gorham, pro se, filed a notice of appeal that appears to seek review of the April 16, 2025, order extending the time for Gorham to amend his complaint and denying his motions for rehearing and for appointment of a guardian ad litem. That order did not dispose of any, much less all, of Gorham’s claims, so it is not final. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291; CSX Transp., Inc. v. City of Garden City, 235 F.3d 1325, 1327 (11th Cir. 2000). Nor is it immediately appealable under the collateral-order doctrine, as it is effectively reviewable on appeal from a final judgment. See Acheron Cap., Ltd. v. Mukamal, 22 F.4th 979, 989 (11th Cir. 2022); Holt v. Ford, 862 F.2d 850, 851-54 (11th Cir. 1989) (en banc). All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
