Nile Nelson STONE, Plaintiff-Appellant,
v.
Pamela HOLOCOMB, Nurse, Defendant-Appellee.
No. 95-7227.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted: October 12, 1995.
Decided: October 26, 1995.
Nile Nelson Stone, Appellant Pro Se. William Carrington Thompson, Chatham, Virginia, for Appellee.
Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Appellant appeals the magistrate judge's order granting summary judgment to the Appellee and ordering the Appellant to particularize his complaint. 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. Sec. 1291 (1988), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 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 deny Appellant's motion for the appointment of counsel 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
