Garvin v. Owen
Garvin v. Owen
Opinion
Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Timothy Tyrone Garvin seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his claim of false imprisonment, and the court’s subsequent order accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his complaint as to certain defendants, denying his motion to alter or amend a previous order, and denying his motion to amend his complaint. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2006), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2006); 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 orders Garvin seeks to appeal are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. 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.
