UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

versus

TONY DEANGELO MCLAUGHLIN,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at Durham. Wallace W. Dixon, Magistrate Judge. (CR-02-251; CA-04-892-2)

Submitted: February 23, 2006 Decided: March 3, 2006

Before WIDENER, NIEMEYER, and KING, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Tony Deangelo McLaughlin, Appellant Pro Se. Sandra Jane Hairston, Assistant United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Tony Deangelo McLaughlin seeks to appeal the report and

recommendation of a magistrate judge, issued on September 13, 2005.

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 order

McLaughlin 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
