Russul v. Zim American Integrated Shipping Services Co.

Citation: 252 F. App'x 776Docket: No. 06-55154

Court: Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit; October 25, 2007; Federal Appellate Court

Narrative Opinion Summary

Plaintiff Russul Corporation appeals the district court's December 28, 2005, order, which transferred the case to the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York. However, the appellate court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal under 28 U.S.C. § 1292(a)(3), as established in Gave Shipping Co. v. Parcel Tankers, Inc., 634 F.2d 1156, 1157 (9th Cir. 1980). This ruling indicates that there is no appellate jurisdiction for orders that do not resolve the rights and liabilities of the parties involved. Consequently, the appeal has been dismissed. The disposition is not intended for publication and does not serve as precedent except as outlined by 9th Cir. R. 36-3.
