`PER CURIAM.
`
`O R D E R
`The appellants identified themselves, among others, as
`plaintiffs in a complaint filed at the United States Court of
`Federal Claims. The trial court dismissed Real Results
`ABA Services, LLC (“Real Results”) and certified that judg-
`ment pursuant to Rule 54(b) of the Rules of the Court of
`
`
`
`
`
`
`

`
`
`
`TIPPET v. US
`
`Federal Claims (“RCFC”). This appeal followed. Because
`no attorney had entered an appearance on behalf of Real
`Results and because there appeared to be no appealable
`judgment except as to Real Results, the court directed the
`parties to show cause why this appeal should not be dis-
`missed. None of the appellants responded to that order.
`The United States responds urging dismissal.
`We agree with the government that this appeal should
`be dismissed. “A corporation, partnership, organization, or
`other legal entity must be represented by counsel before
`this court.” Fed. Cir. R. 47.3(a). In light of that rule, our
`show cause order warned Real Results that failure of coun-
`sel to file an entry an appearance on its behalf within 30
`days would result in dismissal for failure to prosecute. Be-
`cause no entry of appearance has been entered, we dismiss
`the appeal. As to the other plaintiffs, their claims remain
`pending before the trial court. Until such time that the
`trial court issues a final judgment resolving all claims or
`issues a judgment under Rule 54 as to the plaintiffs, this
`court lacks jurisdiction over their claims.
`
`Accordingly,
`
`IT IS ORDERED THAT:
`
`(1) The appeal is dismissed.
`
`(2) Each party shall bear its own costs.
