Darrol Harrison, Plaintiff--appellant, v. Dennis Floyd, Special Drug Enforcement Agent; Johnnydaniels, Special Drug Enforcement Agent; John Doe# 1, Director of the Drug Enforcementagents, Defendants--appellees, 73 F.3d 357 (4th Cir. 1996)

Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's report and recommendation in his Bivens^*  action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is not appealable. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1988), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1988); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Industrial Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The order here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.

We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory. 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
