v.
ARNOLD SCHWARZENEGGER, in his official capacity as Governor of California; et al.,
Defendants,
and
DENNIS HOLLINGSWORTH; et al.,
Intervenor-Defendants- Appellants. .
* This disposition is not appropriate for publication and is not precedent except as provided by Ninth Circuit Rule 36-3. Appeal from the United States District Court for the Northern District of California William Horsley Orrick, District Judge, Presiding
Submitted April 17, 2019** San Francisco, California
Before: FERNANDEZ, BEA, and N.R. SMITH, Circuit Judges.
In light of the district court’s briefing and hearing schedule for a future
motion to continue to seal the recording at issue, we presently lack jurisdiction
over Proponents’ appeal. The district court’s order compelling “the recordings be
kept under seal . . . until August 12, 2020” is not a “final decision[]” of the district
court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291. Nor is it a reviewable collateral order, for the order is
not “effectively unreviewable on appeal from a final judgment.” U.S. v. Hickey,
185 F.3d 1064, 1066 (9th Cir. 1999). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed without
prejudice for lack of jurisdiction.
DISMISSED WITHOUT PREJUDICE.
** The panel unanimously concludes this case is suitable for decision without oral argument. See Fed. R. App. P. 34(a)(2).
