3117 3118 SYMANTEC CORP. v. GLOBAL IMPACT COUNSEL Lorne Adam Kaiser, Romanello Professional Association, Sunrise, Florida, for appellants Joseph Christina and Global Impact, Inc. Mark D. Baute, Patrick M. Maloney, and Henry H. Gonzalez, Baute & Tidus LLP, Los Angeles, California, for appellee Symantec Corporation.

ORDER Global Impact, Inc. (“Global”) appeals the district court’s orders denying its motions to set aside the entry of default and reconsider the same. The clerk entered default against Global when it failed to plead or otherwise defend the adversary pro- ceeding brought by Symantec Corporation. We dismiss because we lack jurisdiction over this appeal.

Although neither party raised the issue of our jurisdiction to entertain this appeal, we have a duty to consider it sua sponte. See Gupta v. Thai Airways Int’l, Ltd., 487 F.3d 759, 763 (9th Cir. 2007). Contrary to Global’s assertions, the dis- trict court has not entered a default judgment against it; it has entered only a default. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 55(a)-(b) (describ- ing the two-step process of “Entering a Default” and “Enter- ing a Default Judgment”). Whereas we have jurisdiction to review a district court’s order denying a motion to set aside the entry of a default judgment, see 28 U.S.C. § 1291; Jeff D. v. Kempthorne, 365 F.3d 844, 849-50 (9th Cir. 2004), we lack jurisdiction over an appeal from an order denying a motion to set aside the entry of default alone, see Haw. Carpenters’ Trust Funds v. Stone, 794 F.2d 508, 512 (9th Cir. 1986) (entry of default is not a final appealable order); Baker v. Limber, SYMANTEC CORP. v. GLOBAL IMPACT 3119 647 F.2d 912, 916 (9th Cir. 1981) (same). Accordingly, we lack jurisdiction over this appeal.1 DISMISSED.

Because we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, we express no opinion on the merits of the district court’s orders.
