Biddle v. Heckler, 82-8178
| Decision Date | 27 December 1983 |
| Docket Number | No. 82-8178,82-8178 |
| Parties | Drexel W. BIDDLE, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Margaret M. HECKLER, Secretary of Health and Human Services, Defendant-Appellant. Non-Argument Calendar. |
| Court | U.S. Court of Appeals — Eleventh Circuit |
Henry L. Whisenhunt, Jr., Asst. U.S. Atty., Augusta, Ga., Andrew E. Wakshul, Joseph S. Friedman, Baltimore, Md., for defendant-appellant.
Bruce V. Durden, Lyons, Ga., Rudolph Patterson, Macon, Ga., for plaintiff-appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Georgia.
Before GODBOLD, Chief Judge, RONEY and TJOFLAT, Circuit Judges.
The motion of appellee to dismiss the appeal is GRANTED, because the appeal is not from a final order. An order of the district court remanding the case to the Secretary for further consideration is generally not a final order. Barfield v. Weinberger, 485 F.2d 696, 698 (5th Cir.1973); see Jordan v. Heckler, 721 F.2d 349 (11th Cir.1983); Howell v. Schweiker, 699 F.2d 524, 526 (11th Cir.1983); Hall v. Heckler, No. 83-7097 (11th Cir. filed May 23, 1983); Chastang v. Heckler, No. 82-7161 (11th Cir. July 7, 1982).
