January 27, 2026 Opinion or Order Filing 10 ORDER FILED. SILVERMAN, PAEZ, and H.A. THOMAS, Circuit Judges. [A] plaintiff, who has been given leave to amend, may not file a notice of appeal simply because he does not choose to file an amended complaint. A further district court determination must be obtained. WMX Techs., Inc. v. Miller, 104 F.3d 1133, 1136 (9th Cir. 1997); see also 28 U.S.C. 1291. This court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the October 14, 2025 order granted leave to amend. This appeal is therefore dismissed. See 9th Cir. R. 3-6(b) (if court determines it lacks jurisdiction, court may dismiss appeal without notice or further proceedings). All pending motions are denied as moot. DISMISSED.
