United States Ninth Circuit


US v. El Dorado County, 11-17134

In action to modify a consent decree concerning the clean-up of an abandoned landfill located near Lake Tahoe in California between the federal government and El Dorado County, the government's appeal of order suspending the decree "pending further order", is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction, where: 1) there was no final appealable order; and 2) the government failed to meet its burden that the factors under Carson v. Am. Brands, Inc., 450 U.S. 79 (1981) are met.
