PER CURIAM:*
Donald Hobbs, Texas prisoner no. 691219, seeks to appeal
interlocutory orders consolidating and dismissing one of five
consolidated cases. He also contends, for the second time in
this court, that the district court erred in striking a motion he
filed under FED. R. CIV. P. 60(b) in another of the consolidated
cases.
“Orders of transfer and consolidation are interlocutory and
are not appealable.” Matter of Macon Uplands Venture, 624 F.2d
26, 27-28 (5th Cir. 1980). The dismissal of only one of the
consolidated cases is likewise not appealable. See Ringwald v.
Harris, 675 F.2d 768, 771 (5th Cir. 1982). As we have already
determined, the order striking the Rule 60(b) motion is not
appealable. Hobbs v. Harbin, No. 01-20722 (5th Cir. Jan. 2,
2002).
Because we have no jurisdiction over these interlocutory
rulings, Hobbs’s appeal is DISMISSED.
Hobbs has now filed at least two appeals from nonappealable
rulings. We caution Hobbs that similar filings in this court may
invite the imposition of sanctions. Hobbs should review any
pending matters of his to determine whether they contain
frivolous claims.
APPEAL DISMISSED; SANCTIONS WARNING ISSUED
*
Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined
that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent
except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.
R. 47.5.4.
