Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Beaufort. R. Bryan Harwell, District Judge. (9:06-cv-02759-RBH)

Submitted: January 25, 2007 Decided: February 1, 2007

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

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Stephen Ray Westberry, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Stephen Ray Westberry seeks to appeal the report and

recommendation of the magistrate judge entered November 16, 2006.

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

(1949). The order

Westberry seeks to appeal is not 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
