PER CURIAM

1

Appellant appeals the magistrate judge's order remanding a civil case Appellant removed from a Georgia state court under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1441 (1988) (No. 94-2050), and the district court's order, after Appellant's notice of appeal and objections, remanding the case (No. 94-2233). It is not clear whether the magistrate judge had jurisdiction to enter a final order remanding the case, absent consent of the parties, which was not given here. See Long v. Lockheed Missiles & Space Co., 783 F. Supp. 249, 250 (D.S.C.1992). In any event, the district court reviewed the magistrate judge's order and Appellant's objections to that order, and remanded the case pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Secs. 1445(c), 1447(d) (1988). Because the remand is not appealable pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1447(d) (1988), we deny Appellant's pending application for in forma pauperis status, and dismiss both appeals. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the Court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
