Lee v. Hemingway

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Lee v. Hemingway, 96 F. App'x 108 (4th Cir. 2004)

Lee v. Hemingway

Opinion of the Court

PER CURIAM.

Reginald Lee seeks to appeal the district court’s order granting summary judgment in favor of Defendant Nathan Stephens, one of the defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2000), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2000); Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 69 S.Ct. 1221, 93 L.Ed. 1528 (1949). The order Lee seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. 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
