Before HIGGINBOTHAM, DAVIS, and HAYNES, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:

Vantage Drilling Company ("Vantage") appeals three orders from the district court and two orders from the bankruptcy court. The orders were entered during the course of the Chapter 11 proceedings of twenty-one shipping companies. Their combined effect was to place certain shares of Vantage stock in custodia legis with the clerk of the court. Because we find that both courts below lacked subject-matter jurisdiction, we VACATE and REMAND.
