Hinton v. Henderson

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit
Hinton v. Henderson, 465 F. App'x 250 (4th Cir. 2012)

Hinton v. Henderson

Opinion of the Court

Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Charles Everette Hinton seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing Michael Henderson from his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) action and denying his motion for default judgment against Teresa Broadway. 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, 545-46, 69 S.Ct. 1221, 93 L.Ed. 1528 (1949). The order Hinton seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor 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.
