ORDER

This matter is before the Court upon claimant Shannon
Williams’ interlocutory appeal regarding memorandum and order
Filing No. 49 and clerk’s entry of default Filing No. 50 (Filing
No. 54) and motion for leave to appeal in forma pauperis (Filing
No. 55).

William’s interlocutory appeal and motion for leave to

appeal in forma pauperis will be denied because the orders they
address are not final pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and do not
satisfy the collateral order doctrine.
Chasser, 490 U.S. 495 (1989).

See Lauro Lines s.r.l. v.

Significantly, a clerk’s entry of

default is not a final order of the Court or an appealable
collateral order.
Cir. 1986).

United States v. Hansen, 795 F.2d 35, 37 (7th

1)

Williams’ interlocutory appeal regarding memorandum

and order Filing No. 49 and clerk’s entry of default Filing No.
50 is (Filing No. 54) is denied.

William’s motion for leave to appeal in forma

pauperis (Filing No. 55) is denied.
DATED this 27th day of March, 2012.
