PER CURIAM:*

Ligia Morice Zavalney filed two motions to proceed in forma

pauperis in appeals docketed as cause No. 96-40168 and No. 96-

40169. This court must examine the basis of its jurisdiction on

its own motion if necessary. Mosley v. Cozby,

(5th Cir. 1987). Zavalney’s appeals must be dismissed for lack

of jurisdiction, as they are not taken from a final or otherwise

appealable order. See

, 1292. The court

directs the clerk’s office to consolidate Zavalney’s appeals in

No. 96-40168 and No. 96-40169. See Holloway v. Walker ,

(5th Cir.), cert. denied,

(1986). The

appeals are DISMISSED.

* Pursuant to Local Rule 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in Local Rule 47.5.4.
