Before WILKINS and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Ahoto Taysir Mulazim, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Ahoto Taysir Mulazim appeals the district court’s order
dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint without prejudice
pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2000). Because Mulazim may cure any
deficiency by filing an amended complaint, we dismiss the appeal
for lack of jurisdiction, because the judgment is not a final,
appealable order. See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local
Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993). We dispense with
oral argument, because the facts and legal contentions are
adequately presented in the materials before the court and argument
would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
