MESFIN KETEMA,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

MIDWEST STAMPING, INCORPORATED; TERRY JUDY; TEDD BALDWIN; CYNTHIA THOMPSON; KIMDRA BELSER,

Defendants - Appellees.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Columbia. Joseph F. Anderson, Jr., Chief District Judge. (CA-02-502-3)

Submitted: January 14, 2004 Decided: February 23, 2004

Before WIDENER and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Mesfin Ketema, Appellant Pro Se. Derwood Lorraine Aydlette, III, Christina Marie Summer, GIGNILLIAT, SAVITZ & BETTIS, Columbia, South Carolina; Kenneth R. Young, Jr., Sumter, South Carolina, for Appellees.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:

Mesfin Ketema seeks to appeal the district court’s orders

denying Ketema’s motions for sanctions, removal of the magistrate

judge and subpoenas. This court may exercise jurisdiction only

over final orders,

(2000), and certain

interlocutory and collateral orders,

(2000); Fed.

R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,

(1949). The orders Ketema seeks to appeal are neither final

orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders.

Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss

the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. We also deny all of Ketema’s

pending motions, including his motions for an injunction, to join

parties, to expedite, to join claims, and for en banc review. 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
