Nos. 92-1431, 92-1503.

United States Court of Appeals, Sixth Circuit.

May 20, 1992.

Before DAVID A. NELSON and ALAN E. NORRIS, Circuit Judges, and KRUPANSKY, Senior Circuit Judge.

ORDER

The plaintiff appeals and the defendant cross-appeals from a district court order denying the plaintiff's motion for a protective order and denying the defendant's motion in limine. Under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, courts of appeals have jurisdiction only over final decisions of the district court. An order pertaining to discovery is not final and, therefore, is not appealable under § 1291. See Dow Chemical Co. v. Taylor, 519 F.2d 352, 355 (6th Cir.) cert. denied, 423 U.S. 1033 (1975).

It is therefore ORDERED that the plaintiff's appeal and the defendant's cross-appeal are dismissed sua sponte for lack of appellate jurisdiction. Rule 9(b)(1), Local Rules of the Sixth Circuit.
