Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Kendall, trustee in the bankrupt estate of Frederick D. Reid, brought suit in the District Court against Roy E. Reid to collect on an open account due the bankrupt. Kendall is a law student not admitted to the bar. The trial judge refused to permit Kendall to represent himself. Kendall thereupon retained counsel admitted to practice to try the case. Kendall appeals from the order denying him the right to represent himself as trustee. 1

The order is not a final determination within the meaning of 28 U.S.C.A. § 1291, or an appealable interlocutory order within the meaning of 28 U.S.C.A. § 1292. Application of Wasserman, 9 Cir., 1956, 240 F.2d 213.

The appeal is dismissed.
