Summary Calendar Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of Texas
USDC No. 4:17-CV-1594 Before WIENER, SOUTHWICK, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges. PER CURIAM:
Pursuant to 5TH CIRCUIT RULE 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIRCUIT RULE 47.5.4. --------
Tommy Willis, Texas prisoner # 794591, appeals from the district court's orders entered in his civil rights action commenced pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 denying him relief on his motions to reinstate the case, to appoint counsel, for leave to amend his complaint, for an extension of the discovery period, to compel discovery, and for a temporary restraining order. The interlocutory orders at issue are not appealable orders. See Williams v. Catoe, 946 F.3d 278, 279-81 (5th Cir. 2020) (en banc); Askanase v. Livingwell, Inc., 981 F.2d 807, 809-10 (5th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, we DISMISS the appeal for want of jurisdiction. We DENY as moot Willis's motion to appoint counsel, motion for leave to file motion to correct errors, motion to expedite the appeal, and motion to vacate order staying case.
