No. 99-50408 -1- IN THE UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FIFTH CIRCUIT No. 99-50408 Conference Calendar LOUIS CHARLES SHEPTIN, Plaintiff-Appellant, versus KIMBERELY ANN FREEMAN, Nurse, Val Verde County Jail; ALFREDO GUTIERREZ, M.D., Defendants-Appellees. -------------------- Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Texas USDC No. DR-98-CV-16 -------------------- April 13, 2000 Before WIENER, DeMOSS, and PARKER, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:* Louis Charles Sheptin appeals the district court’s order denying his motions to compel discovery and for summary judgment. This order is not appealable as a final judgment, has not been deemed final under any jurisprudential exception, and has not been certified for appeal by the district court. See Dardar v. Lafourche Realty Co., Inc.,849 F.2d 955
, 957 (5th Cir. 1988). Alternatively, Sheptin asks this court to exercise its “supervisory power” and accept jurisdiction over this case * 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 R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR.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. No. 99-50408 -2- because he has allegedly revealed evidence of conspiracies and wrongdoing by the district court. There is no authority for the court to assume “supervisory responsibility” over Sheptin’s pending complaint in the district court. Because we are without jurisdiction, the appeal is DISMISSED. See Texaco, Inc. v. Louisiana Land and Exploration Co.,995 F.2d 43
, 43 (5th Cir. 1993); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,337 U.S. 541
, 546 (1949). APPEAL DISMISSED.
