BOWNES, Senior Circuit Judge.
This is a second endeavor by four Puerto Rico school officials to appeal an award of damages to plaintiffs, two teacher’s aides who were wrongfully terminated from their positions. Having scrutinized the procedural history of the case and the ap plicable rules, we conclude that the school officials have no right to further review of the judgment against them and therefore dismiss for want of jurisdiction.
