United States First Circuit

In a dispute involving the payment of compensatory damages involved with an underlying 42 U.S.C. section 1983 action, defendant's appeal of district court judgment is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction where the deposit order from the district court is an interlocutory, non-final order and thus is not appealable.
