(2:16-cv-00103-MSD-RJK) Submitted: November 7, 2018 Decided: November 15, 2018 Before GREGORY, Chief Judge, DUNCAN, Circuit Judge, and SHEDD, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Brian Damon Farabee, Appellant Pro Se. Jim H. Guynn, Jr., GUYNN WADDELL CARROLL & LOCKABY, P.C., Salem, Virginia; John Chadwick Johnson, FRITH, ANDERSON & PEAKE, PC, Roanoke, Virginia, for Appellees. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. 2 PER CURIAM: Brian Farabee seeks to appeal the district court’s orders granting the motions to dismiss of two defendants in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) action and denying his motion for reconsideration of the order. 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 orders Farabee seeks to appeal are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. Accordingly, we deny Farabee’s pending motion 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 3
