721 F.2d 1321 Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit (1983) Positive Treatment
Cited by 4 cases

Opinion of the Court
BY THE COURT:

BY THE COURT:

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).
