Appellee.

See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Allen Ray Johnson appeals from the district court’s order
denying his motion for release on bond. We may exercise
jurisdiction only over final orders, see 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2000),
and certain interlocutory and collateral orders. See 28 U.S.C.
§ 1292 (2000); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.
Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The district court’s denial of
bond falls within the collateral order doctrine and is immediately
appealable. See Pagan v. United States, 353 F.3d 1343, 1345-46
(11th Cir. 2003) (collecting cases adopting rule). We have
reviewed the record on appeal and find no reversible error.
Accordingly, we affirm for the reasons stated by the district
court. See United States v. Johnson, No. CR-01-167 (E.D.N.C.
Mar. 8, 2004). 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.
AFFIRMED
