Margaret Reaves, Appellant Pro Se. Brian Michael Rowlson,
BRADLEY ARANT BOULT CUMMINGS LLP, Charlotte, North Carolina, for
Appellees.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Margaret Reaves seeks to appeal the district court’s order
dismissing her civil complaint. 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, 545-47 (1949). Because the
deficiencies identified by the district court may be remedied by
the filing of an amended complaint, we conclude that the order
Reaves seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an
appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Goode v. Cent.
Va. Legal Aid Soc’y, Inc., 807 F.3d 619, 623 (4th Cir. 2015);
Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d
1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction
and remand the case to the district court with instructions to
allow Reaves to file an amended complaint. 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 AND REMANDED
