UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 18-7485
JARON BRICE,
Petitioner - Appellant,
v.
J. RAY ORMOND, Warden,
Respondent - Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at
Alexandria. Anthony John Trenga, District Judge. (1:18-cv-00960-AJT-TCB)
Submitted: March 14, 2019 Decided: March 19, 2019
Before WYNN and RICHARDSON, Circuit Judges, and TRAXLER, Senior Circuit
Judge.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Jaron Brice, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Jaron Brice seeks to appeal the district court’s order ordering him to notify the
court how he sought to proceed with his 28 U.S.C. § 2241 (2012) petition. 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 Brice seeks to
appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Finding
no basis for appellate jurisdiction, we deny Brice’s motion for bail or release, deny leave
to proceed in forma pauperis, and dismiss the appeal. 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
