967 P.2d 947 (1998)

In the Matter of the ADOPTION OF BABY K. aka Baby E., a minor. R.H.D., Plaintiff and Appellant, v. S.F. and M.F., Defendants and Appellees.

Court of Appeals of Utah.

October 22, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Joyce Maughan, Salt Lake City, for Appellant.

Les F. England, Park City, for Appellees.

Before Judges DAVIS, BENCH, and ORME.


ORME, Judge:

A child's natural father, whose consent to the child's adoption was earlier held unnecessary, sought relief from that determination when the prospective parents abandoned their adoption petition.1 The trial court denied the requested relief and the natural father appeals. We hold that we lack jurisdiction because the natural father has not appealed from a final judgment.
