UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 04-6934

JOHN PAUL TURNER,

Petitioner - Appellant,

versus

SUPERINTENDENT, Rockbridge Regional Jail/Augusta County Sheriff,

Respondent - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Samuel G. Wilson, Chief District Judge. (CA-03-761-7)

Submitted: September 24, 2004 Decided: November 15, 2004

Before NIEMEYER, LUTTIG, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

John Paul Turner, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

John Paul Turner appeals the district court’s orders

dismissing without prejudice his

(2000) petition

and denying his motion for reconsideration. Because Turner could

amend the petition to clearly state the claims he wishes to raise

and whether he is in custody pursuant to the relevant conviction,

the dismissal order is interlocutory and not appealable. See

Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392,

(4th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for

lack of jurisdiction. 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
