Opinion

CAMERON, Circuit Judge.

The United States brought this action against appellees, Edwin Udell Woodard and Clarence B. Moody, as residents of Miami, Florida, and Florida Marine Corporation, a company organized under the laws of Florida with its principal place of business in Miami, Florida, based upon a single claim. Appellee Woodard filed a motion to dismiss which was granted. The order entered on this motion was interlocutory only, and was not a final decision under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1291, which alone confers jurisdiction upon this Court in such actions. Meadows v. Greyhound Corporation, 5 Cir., 1956, 235 F.2d 233, and Reagan v. Traders and General Insurance Co., 5 Cir., 1958, 255 F.2d 845.

The appeal is therefore,

Dismissed.
