Appeal from the United States District Court
for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. H-95-CV-9401

December 12, 2001
Before HIGGINBOTHAM, BARKSDALE, and STEWART, Circuit Judges.

171-72 (5th Cir. 1983). Because we lack jurisdiction, Lee’s
appeal is DISMISSED and all outstanding motions are DENIED.
