PER CURIAM:
Brett C. Kimberlin seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing some but not all of his claims in his civil
action. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final
orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and
collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P.
54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,
337 U.S. 541, 545-
46 (1949). The order Kimberlin seeks to appeal is neither a
final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral
order. See Stevenson v. City of Seat Pleasant,
743 F.3d 411,
415-16 (4th Cir. 2014) (citations omitted). Accordingly, we
dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. We deny the motion
for sanctions as moot. 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
