Abko Properties, Inc., 780 F.2d 751, 754 (9th Cir.1986), cert. denied, 479 U.S. 825 (1986), the court lacks jurisdiction to address the substantive claims.
The appeal in the above-entitled case is hereby dismissed for lack of jurisdiction.
DISMISSED.
The panel unanimously finds this case suitable for decision without oral argument. Fed.R.App.P. 34(a); Ninth Circuit Rule 34-4
