Garner v. Columbia Care Center
Garner v. Columbia Care Center
Opinion of the Court
Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
David Lee Garner seeks to appeal the district court’s order adopting the recommendation of magistrate judge and dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint without prejudice. Because Garner may amend his complaint to cure the defects identified by the district court, we find that the dismissal order is interlocutory and 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 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.
