525 F.2d 1202 (Federal Reporter, Second Series)

William R. Bennett v. Behring Corporation, a Delaware Corporation

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

Appellant Behring Corporation, a real estate developer, appeals from an order of the district court granting class action certification under certain counts of a complaint against it, and defining the appropriate class and subclass. The district court denied appellant’s motion for certification pursuant to . 28 U.S.C. § 1292(b), and appellant now seeks to appeal under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

We have carefully considered the briefs, record, and contentions of the parties on oral argument. It is our conclusion that the order entered by the district court is not a final appealable order under § 1291 and that the appeal should be dismissed. See, e. g., Blackie v. Barrack, 524 F.2d 891 (9th Cir. 1975); Seiffer v. Topsy’s International, Inc., 520 F.2d 795 (10th Cir. 1974); In re Cessna Aircraft Distributorship Antitrust Litigation, White Industries, Inc. v. Cessna Aircraft Co., 518 F.2d 213 (8th Cir. 1975); General Motors Corp. v. City of New York, 501 F.2d 639 (2d Cir. 1974); Thill Securities Corp. v. New York Stock Exchange, 469 F.2d 14 (7th Cir. 1972); Walsh v. City of Detroit, 412 F.2d 226 (6th Cir. 1969).

Appeal dismissed.
