Filing 6
ORDER FILED. (John B. OWENS, Eric D. MILLER, Patrick J. BUMATAY) This court lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the February 23, 2026 magistrate judge order is not final or immediately appealable. See 28 U.S.C. 1291; Wilborn v. Escalderon, 789 F.2d 1328, 1330 (9th Cir. 1986) (denial of appointment of counsel in civil case is not appealable); see also Flam v. Flam, 788 F.3d 1043, 1046 (9th Cir. 2015) (magistrate judge may hear and determine nondispositive matters under 28 U.S.C. 636(b)(1)(A)). 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.
