Ruelas contends that the district court erred by denying his motion for
photographic evidence. The district court properly treated this motion as a
discovery request because Ruelas requested the discovery in the ongoing review of
his conviction. Because discovery orders are not final appealable orders, see
United States v. Zone, 403 F.3d 1101, 1106 (9th Cir. 2005) (per curiam), we
dismiss.
DISMISSED.
