MEMORANDUM ***

Floyd L. and Marlene Morrow appeal from the district court’s December 4, 2013 order denying their motions to file an amended complaint and substitute Doe defendants in their 42 U.S.C. § 1983 action alleging that defendants violated the Morrows’ equal protection rights by citing them for land use violations on their property. We grant the City of San Diego’s motion to dismiss the appeal for lack of appellate jurisdiction.

The December 4, 2013 order is not an appealable final decision because it did not end the litigation on the merits or “clearly evidencef ] the judge’s intention that it be the court’s final act in the matter.” Nat’l Distribution Agency v. Nationwide Mut. Ins. Co., 117 F.3d 432, 433 (9th Cir. 1997) (quoting Slimiclc v. Silva (In re Slimick), 928 F.2d 304, 307 (9th Cir. 1990)); see also 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (“The courts of appeals ,.. shall have jurisdiction of appeals from all final decisions of the district courts of the United States — ”), The Morrows contend that the order nonetheless is ap-pealable because it was based on Pullmm abstention. See R.R. Comm’n of Tex. v. Pullman Co., 312 U.S. 496, 61 S.Ct. 643, 85 L.Ed. 971 (1941); Confederated Salish v. Simonich, 29 F.3d 1398, 1407 (9th Cir. 1994) (holding that a decision granting Pullman abstention is an appealable order). The December 4,2013 order, however, did not grant Pullman abstention; rather, the district court granted abstention in an earlier order, from, which the Morrows did not timely appeal. We therefore lack jurisdiction to hear this appeal.

DISMISSED.
