UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 13-1790 MARK A. PANOWICZ, Plaintiff – Appellant, v. SHARON L. HANCOCK, in individual capacity; SHARON L. HANCOCK, Clerk of the Circuit Court for Charles County (in official capacity), Defendants - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt. Deborah K. Chasanow, Chief District Judge. (8:11-cv-02417-DKC) Submitted: October 22, 2013 Decided: October 24, 2013 Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and THACKER, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Mark A. Panowicz, Appellant Pro Se. Hugh Scott Curtis, OFFICE OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF MARYLAND, Baltimore, Maryland, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Mark A. Panowicz seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying the parties’ cross-motions for reconsideration of the court’s order granting in part and denying in part Defendant’s motion to dismiss Panowicz’s civil action and denying Panowicz’s motion for leave to amend his complaint. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2006), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2006); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order Panowicz seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accordingly, we 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 2
