Annotate this Case
US Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit - 78 F.3d 579 (4th Cir. 1996) Submitted Feb. 7, 1996. Decided Feb. 28, 1996

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, District Judge. (CA-95-1359-AM)

Davey James Reedy, Appellant Pro Se.

E.D. Va.

DISMISSED.

Before MURNAGHAN and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.

PER CURIAM:


Appellant appeals a district court order dismissing his complaint without prejudice for lack of an allegation of harm and an order denying reconsideration. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the orders are 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 Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The orders here appealed are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1067 (4th Cir. 1993).

We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory. We deny Appellant's "Motion for Supplement" and 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.
