PER CURIAM: Samson M. Loynachan, Texas prisoner #1789266, who stands convicted of murder, seeks a certificate of appealability (COA) to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion to stay his 28 U.S.C. § 2254 proceeding so that he could exhaust his state court remedies. He contends that the district court abused its discretion in denying his motion, arguing that he did not engage in dilatory tactics in the state courts. Loynachan’s motion for a COA is DENIED AS UNNECESSARY as no COA is required to review the district court’s ruling .on this non-merits issue. See Young v.
Stephens, 795 F.3d 484, 494 (5th Cir. 2015), cert. denied, — U.S. —, 136 S.Ct. 1453, 194 L.Ed.2d 557 (2016). His appeal is DISMISSED for lack of jurisdiction, however, because the district court’s order is not immediately appealable as it is neither a final order nor an appealable collateral order. See Grace v. Vannoy, 826 F.3d 813, 815-21 (5th Cir. 2016); 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291, 1292; see also Mohawk Indus., Inc. v. Carpenter, 558 U.S. 100, 106, 130 S.Ct. 599, 175 L.Ed.2d 458 (2009); Young, 795 F.3d at 494-95. Pursuant to 5th Cir.
R. 47.5, the court has determined that this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except under the limited circumstances set forth in 5th Cir. R. 47.5.4.
