2 Opinion of the Court 23-12766
Before ROSENBAUM, JILL PRYOR, and ABUDU, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. Bernadette Dickerson appeals directly from the magistrate judge’s June 30, 2023 report and recommendation (“R&R”) that Conduent Commercial Solutions, LLC’s motion to dismiss her complaint be granted. However, the R&R was not final or imme- diately appealable, and Dickerson filed the construed notice of ap- peal before the district court adopted the R&R. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291; Donovan v. Sarasota Concrete Co., 693 F.2d 1061, 1066-67 (11th Cir. 1982) (explaining that magistrate judge orders issued pur- suant to 28 U.S.C. § 636(b) are not final and may not be appealed until rendered final by a district court); Perez-Priego v. Alachua Cnty.
Clerk of Ct., 148 F.3d 1272, 1273 (11th Cir. 1998) (providing that a magistrate judge’s R&R that has not been adopted by the district court is not final and immediately appealable). Moreover, the dis- trict court’s adoption of the R&R did not cure the instant prema- ture notice of appeal. See Perez-Priego, 148 F.3d at 1273.
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.
All pending motions are DENIED as moot.
