Richard Lee Mullen, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM: Richard L. Mullen seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2000) complaint. The court dismissed Mullen’s complaint because Mullen failed to comply with an order directing him to submit an adequate number of copies of the complaint and other documents.
Because Mullen may proceed with this action by supplying an ade- quate number of copies of the relevant documents, the order in question is not a final, appealable order. See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdic- tion. We dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
