Case Explained: Non-Argument Calendar DAVID W. LANGLEY DAVID W. LANGLEY P.A v. LIZA HAZAN

Court: United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit

Filed: 2026-07-08

Docket: 1:25-cv-21172-EIS

The eleventh-circuit dismissed the appeal sua sponte for lack of jurisdiction. The court held that it could not review the district court’s April 24, 2025 order remanding the case to state court because the removal was not based on federal officer immunity statutes (28 U.S.C. §§ 1442 or 1443) and the remand was grounded in a lack of subject matter jurisdiction, which renders the order unreviewable under 28 U.S.C. § 1447(d). Furthermore, the court determined it lacked jurisdiction to review the district court’s October 7, 2025 order denying reconsideration of the remand and its associated attorney’s fees award because the amount of fees had not yet been determined, meaning the fee ruling was not a final order. Consequently, the appeal is dismissed without reaching the merits of the underlying dispute.
