Filing 4
ORDER FILED. (John B. OWENS, Eric D. MILLER, Patrick J. BUMATAY) A district courts dismissal order is not final or immediately appealable under 28 U.S.C. 1291 unless it disposes of all claims as to all parties or unless judgment is entered in compliance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 54(b). Romoland Sch. Dist. v. Inland Empire Energy Ctr., LLC, 548 F.3d 738, 747 (9th Cir. 2008) (citing Chacon v. Babcock, 640 F.2d 221, 222 (9th Cir. 1981)). [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; Green v. Occidental Petroleum Corp., 541 F.2d 1335, 1338 (9th Cir. 1976) (district court must be of the opinion that the criteria of section 1292(b) are met; court of appeals is without authority to assume an appeal unilaterally). This court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the January 9, 2026 order granted leave to amend one claim. 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.
