RYAN, Circuit Judge. Plaintiffs, Dr. Charles L. Jarrett, Jr. and Edward Austin, et al., appeal the district court's grant of summary judgment for the defendant, Robert L. Kassel, on their claims that Kassel conspired with others to sell contracts to the plaintiffs for future delivery of coal, in violation of the Commodity Exchange Act, 7 U.S.C. §§ 6, 6a, 6b(A), 6b(C), 6h(1), and 6o(1) (1976), and conspired to defraud them in violation of Tennessee common law. Plaintiffs also appeal two interlocutory orders of the district court. In addition, defendant Kassel cross-appeals two interlocutory orders that were adverse to him.
