Daryl Bright v. Governor Nikki Haley

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 14-1437 DARYL LINARD BRIGHT, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. GOVERNOR NIKKI HALEY; SC DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE; NORTH CHARLESTON POLICE DEPARTMENT; OFFICER DANIEL RYAN GREEN, Defendants - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Charleston. David C. Norton, District Judge. (2:14-cv-01132-DCN) Submitted: July 29, 2014 Decided: July 31, 2014 Before NIEMEYER, WYNN, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Daryl Linard Bright, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM: Daryl Linard Bright appeals the district court’s order adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing his civil complaint without prejudice. 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 Bright seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order, as Bright may be able to save the action by amending his complaint to cure the pleading deficiencies identified by the district court. Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993). 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
