UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 05-6787
KELVIN WATFORD,
Plaintiff - Appellant,
versus
CORRECTIONAL OFFICER HOUSE,
Defendant - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Gerald Bruce Lee, District Judge. (CA-04-1526-1)
Submitted: October 18, 2005 Decided: October 20, 2005
Before WIDENER, MICHAEL, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Kelvin Watford, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). PER CURIAM:
Kelvin Watford seeks to appeal the district court’s order
denying relief on his
42 U.S.C. § 1983(2000) complaint. This
court may exercise jurisdiction only over a final order,
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(1949). The order Watford seeks to
appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or
collateral order because it has been vacated by the district court
on Watford’s motion for reconsideration. See Watford v. House, No.
CA-04-1526-1 (E.D. Va. June 1, 2005). 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.
