    William Davis, Jr. v. Michael Grice, 4th Cir. (2015)

    Uploaded by

    Scribd Government Docs
    This document is an unpublished order from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing a petition for permission to appeal a bankruptcy court order. The petitioner, William Scott Davis Jr., sought to appeal the bankruptcy court's order returning a document he had filed in a closed bankruptcy case. However, the Fourth Circuit does not have direct appellate jurisdiction over bankruptcy court orders without certification under 28 U.S.C. § 158(d)(2)(A). As no such certification was issued, the Fourth Circuit dismissed the petition for lack of jurisdiction to consider the appeal.
