Appeal from the United States District Court for the Middle District of North Carolina, at

Submitted: October 22, 2020                                   Decided: October 26, 2020


Before WYNN, FLOYD, and THACKER, Circuit Judges.


Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


Jonathan Torrey Duncan, Appellant Pro Se. Christina Jansen Banfield, HARRIS,
CREECH, WARD & BLACKERBY, New Bern, North Carolina; Brian Florencio Castro,
Bradley O. Wood, WOMBLE BOND DICKINSON (US) LLP, Winston-Salem, North
Carolina, for Appellees.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

       Jonathan Torrey Duncan seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s report

recommending that the district court dismiss Duncan’s complaint. 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 Duncan 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
