Defendants - Appellees.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of Virginia, at Richmond. Robert E. Payne, Senior
District Judge. (3:16-cv-00023-REP)
Submitted: December 20, 2016 Decided: December 22, 2016
Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, and WYNN and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Die K. Blaise, Appellant Pro Se. Kevin D. Holden, JACKSON LEWIS
PC, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Die K. Blaise seeks to appeal the district court’s order
dismissing part of his civil complaint with prejudice and
dismissing the remainder without prejudice. Blaise has since
filed an amended civil complaint raising the claims dismissed
without prejudice, and that action remains pending with the
district court. 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 Blaise seeks to appeal is neither a final
order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.
Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and
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
