2 Opinion of the Court 24-10621

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Georgia D.C. Docket No. 7:23-cv-00061-WLS-TQL ____________________

Before WILSON, ROSENBAUM, and LUCK, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. Roy Smith, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this inter- locutory appeal challenging the district court’s “failure to set and hold a habeas corpus evidentiary hearing.” He did not designate an order of the district court for review, and only the magistrate judge entered orders before Smith filed his notice of appeal. See Fed. R. App. P. 3(c)(1)(B). There are no final and appealable orders in this case because the district court has not rendered any of the magistrate judge’s orders final and has not yet ruled on Smith’s ha- beas petition. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291; Donovan v. Sarasota Concrete Co., 693 F.2d 1061, 1066‑67 (11th Cir. 1982); United States v. Schultz, 565 F.3d 1353, 1359 (11th Cir. 2009). No petition for rehearing may be filed unless it complies with the timing and other requirements of 11th Cir. R. 40-3 and all other applicable rules.
