Walker v. Newport News City Jail
Walker v. Newport News City Jail
Opinion
Antonio Dean Walker appeals the district court’s order dismissing without prejudice Walker’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) civil rights action. Because Walker may resubmit his complaint as amended to cure the defects identified by the district court, the dismissal order is not appealable. See Chao v. Rivendell Woods, Inc., 415 F.3d 342, 345 (4th Cir. 2005); Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal. 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.
