PER CURIAM:

             Frederick Green seeks to appeal the district court's

order   adopting   the    magistrate     judge's   recommendation,    denying

Green's motion for a temporary restraining order and a preliminary

injunction.     Although we previously dismissed this appeal, see

Green   v.   Ozmint,     No.   05-6648   (4th   Cir.   Nov.   29,   2005),   we

subsequently granted panel rehearing and denied rehearing en banc.

On rehearing, we affirm in part and dismiss in part.

             This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final

orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2000), and certain interlocutory and

collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2000).            Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b);

Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 
337 U.S. 541
 (1949).                  As

noted in our prior opinion, the district court’s denial of Green’s

request for a temporary restraining order is not appealable, and we

accordingly dismiss the appeal as to this portion of the district

court’s decision.

             On the other hand, the district court’s denial of Green’s

request for a preliminary injunction is immediately appealable. 28

U.S.C. § 1292(a)(1) (2000).         With respect to the portion of the

appeal regarding the district court's denial of Green's motion for

a preliminary injunction, we have reviewed the record and find no

reversible error.        Accordingly, we affirm this portion of the

appeal for the reasons stated by the district court.                 Green v.

Ozmint, No. CA-04-22074-2 (D.S.C. Mar. 16, 2005).

          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.



                              AFFIRMED IN PART; DISMISSED IN PART
