Lonnie Oglesbee, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

                  Lonnie     Oglesbee        appeals       the   district       court’s    order

dismissing without prejudice his civil action filed pursuant to

Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Fed. Bureau of Narcotics,

   (1971),       for       failure    to    exhaust       administrative

remedies. ∗         Because the record contains allegations that prison

staff denied Oglesbee grievance forms and retaliated against him

for using the administrative grievance process, we conclude that

the    failure         to    exhaust       is    not    clear     from    the    face     of   the

complaint.             See Anderson v. XYZ Corr. Health Servs., 

, 682-83 (4th Cir. 2005); see also Moore v. Bennette, 

,    725      (4th    Cir.     2008).        Accordingly,         we   vacate    the

judgment          of     the       district       court     and     remand        for    further

proceedings consistent with this opinion.                                We deny Oglesbee’s

motion       to    appoint         counsel       and    dispense     with       oral    argument

because       the        facts       and        legal   contentions         are        adequately




       ∗
       Generally, dismissals without prejudice are interlocutory
and not appealable.   Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local
Union 392, 

, 1066 (4th Cir. 1993).        However, a
dismissal without prejudice could be final if no amendment to
the complaint could cure the defect in the plaintiff’s case.

  We conclude that the defect in this case (the
failure to exhaust administrative remedies) can only be cured by
something more than an amendment to the complaint and that the
order is appealable.

                                          VACATED AND REMANDED
