Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of Florida D.C. Docket No. 2:24-cv-00776-JLB-NPM, ____________________
Before JILL PRYOR, NEWSOM, and LUCK, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: This appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdic- tion. John Daniel Smith, proceeding pro se, appeals an order from the Orlando Division of the Middle District of Florida transferring his case to that court’s Fort Myers Division. However, that order is not immediately appealable. Compare M.D. Fla. Local Rule 1.04(b), with 28 U.S.C. § 1404(a), and 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a); see 28 U.S.C. § 1291; CSX Transp., Inc. v. City of Garden City, 235 F.3d 1325, 1327 (11th Cir. 2000) (explaining that non-final orders are only ap- pealable if they “fall into a specific class of interlocutory orders that are made appealable by statute or jurisprudential exception”); Mid- dlebrooks v. Smith, 735 F.2d 431, 433 (11th Cir. 1984) (explaining that transfer orders generally do not fall within the collateral order doc- trine because they can be raised later, and because the parties chal- lenging them can move to retransfer their cases).
