Roger Ervin v. Bobby Shearin
Roger Ervin v. Bobby Shearin
Opinion
Dismissed by unpublished PER CURIAM opinion.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
Roger L. Ervin seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying in part his motion for discovery. 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 Ervin seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Nor could it have been certified for immediate appeala-bility under Rule 54(b). In re Bryson, 406 F.3d 284, 287-88 (4th Cir. 2005); Equip. Fin. Grp., Inc. v. Traverse Computer Brokers, 973 F.2d 345, 347-48 (4th Cir. 1992). 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.
