Docket No. 1:23-cv-24750-RAR ____________________ Before NEWSOM, LAGOA, and ABUDU, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM: Mark Stinson appeals from the district court’s order transferring his case to the Eastern District of Arkansas, but that order is not appealable. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) (providing that a district court may transfer a case if venue is lacking in the district court in which the case was filed); Stelly v. Emps. Nat’l Ins. Co., 431 F.2d 1251, 1253 (5th Cir. 1970) (holding that an order transferring a case under 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a) is interlocutory and non-appealable); Middlebrooks v. Smith, 735 F.2d 431, 433 (11th Cir. 1984) (explaining that a transfer order is not immediately appealable under the collateral order doctrine). Accordingly, this appeal is DISMISSED, sua sponte, for lack of jurisdiction. All pending motions are DENIED as moot. No petition for rehearing may be filed unless it complies with the timing USCA11 Case: 23-14178 23-14178 Document: 18-1 Date Filed: 03/12/2024 Opinion of the Court Page: 3 of 3 3 and other requirements of 11th Cir.
