ORDER
Elizabeth L. Gleicher. Chief Judge, acting under MCR 7.203(F)(1), orders:
The claim of appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction because a final order or judgment had not yet been entered when the claim of appeal was filed on August 8. 2023. MCR 7.203(A)(1) The Court has since received a copy of a final order that was entered on September 12. 2023. but the jurisdictional defect of the premature claim of appeal cannot be cured by a final judgment entered after the claim of appeal was filed. Dismissal is without prejudice to the filing of a new appeal from a final order under MCR. 7.202(6), provided such a filing meets all requirements under the court rules and is not time-barred.
