Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. USCA4 Appeal: 23-6935 Doc: 5 Filed: 12/19/2023 Pg: 2 of 2

PER CURIAM:

Graham Harry Schiff seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his motion

to stay adjudication of a pending

28 U.S.C. § 2254

petition, concluding his

28 U.S.C. § 2241

petition was duplicative, granting a motion to seal filed by Respondent, and ruling

on various nondispositive motions. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final

orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1291

, and certain interlocutory and collateral orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1292

;

Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,

337 U.S. 541, 545-46

(1949).

The order Schiff 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
