Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Wayne L. Davis, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Wayne L. Davis seeks to appeal the district court’s

order dismissing his complaint without prejudice. 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

(1949). The order

Davis seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable

interlocutory or collateral order. See Domino Sugar Corp.

v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392,

10 F.3d 1064, 1067

(4th Cir.

1993).

Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of

jurisdiction. We deny Davis’s motion to reconsider our previous

order denying his motion for stay pending 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
