Jerome McFadden v. S. Lewis, 585 F. App'x 270 (4th Cir. 2014)

Jerome McFadden v. S. Lewis

Opinion

Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Jerome McFadden seeks to appeal the district court’s text order denying his motion seeking reconsideration of several nondispositive orders issued by the magistrate judge, including orders denying his motions for appointment of counsel and for an extension of time to complete discovery, and an order granting in part and denying in part McFadden’s motion to stay Defendants’ summary judgment motion. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); 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 McFadden 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
