Three defendants were involved in this lawsuit: Robbs Oil Company, Jimmy Robbs and Gulf Oil Co. After consideration of various motions, the trial court dismissed the Tacketts\u2019 complaint against Robbs Oil Company, Inc. and appellee, Jimmy Robbs, leaving the lawsuit standing against Gulf Oil Company. The Tacketts appealed from the order of dismissal.\nWe dismiss this appeal because the order appealed from is not an appealable order meeting the requirements of A.R.C.P. Rule 54(b). United Parcel Service, Inc. v. Pridgen Security, Inc., 292 Ark. 11, 727 S.W.2d 381 (1987) Kilcrease v. Butler, 291 Ark. 275, 724 S.W.2d 169 (1987). A.R.C.P. Rule 54(b) provides in pertinent part:\nwhen multiple parties are involved, or where more than one claim is presented, the trial court may direct the entry of a final judgment as to one or more but fewer than all of the parties and claims only upon an express determination that there is no just reason for delay and upon the express direction for the entry of the judgment.\nThe order of dismissal does not make a determination that there is no just cause for delay. Compliance with Rule 54(b), is a jurisdictional requirement which we are obligated to raise even though the parties do not. Arkansas Savings and Loan Association Board v. Corning Savings and Loan Association, 252 Ark. 264, 478 S.W.2d 431 (1972). We have issued numerous reminders that the rules of civil procedure do not permit an appeal in cases where defendants are dismissed and other defendants remain unless there is compliance with A.R.C.P. Rule 54(b). Kilcrease v. Butler, supra; Arkhola Sand & Gravel Co. v. Hutchinson, 289 Ark. 313, 711 S.W.2d 474 (1986); 3-W Lumber Co. v.
