Before KELLY and NEBEKER, Associate Judges, and BOWERS, Associate Judge, Superior Court of the District of Columbia.


NEBEKER, Associate Judge:

The United States has filed an appeal from the trial court's refusal to reconsider its order vacating appellee's conviction and dismissing the indictment. On the merits, the government argued that the trial court erred in dismissing the indictment based on a technical, unintentional violation of the Interstate Agreement on Detainers Act (IAD), D.C.Code 1973, § 24-701. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.
