Dailey v. Timmer

United States Court of Appeals, Third Circuit
Jul 7, 1961
292 F.2d 824 (3d Cir. 1961)

Opinion

No. 13512.

Argued June 22, 1961.

Decided July 7, 1961.

J.S. Jiuliante, Sr., Erie, Pa., for appellants.

John A. Blackmore, Erie, Pa. (Blackmore Grieshober, Ostrow Dailey, John J. Dailey, Erie, Pa., on the brief), for appellees.

Before GOODRICH, McLAUGHLIN and KALODNER, Circuit Judges.


This is an appeal from an order granting a new trial entered by a judge for the District Court for the Western District of Pennsylvania. Met with the statute 28 U.S.C. § 1291 which gives Courts of Appeals jurisdiction of all final decisions of District Courts (with certain exceptions not relevant here), the appellant urges upon us our own decision in Lind v. Schenley Industries, Inc., 3 Cir., 1960, 278 F.2d 79. That case has no bearing here. This Court, in that case, had jurisdiction because there was an appeal from a judgment N.O.V. The new trial action was incidental to the main point.

The appeal will be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
