UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 21-1757 WILLIE FRANK JAMES, JR., Plaintiff - Appellant, v. SOUTHEASTERN GROCERS LLC, Defendant - Appellee, and DAN FAKETTY; JENNIFER POWERS, Defendants. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. Richard Mark Gergel, District Judge. (2:18-cv-01031-RMG-MHC) Submitted: November 23, 2021 Decided: November 29, 2021 Before NIEMEYER, FLOYD, and RUSHING, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Willie Frank James, Jr., Appellant Pro Se. David S. Shankman, SHANKMAN LEONE PA, Tampa, Florida, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Willie Frank James, Jr., seeks to appeal the district court’s order granting in part and denying in part Southeastern Grocers LLC’s motion for summary judgment. 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 James 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 2
