UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 11-6636
T. THORNE-EL,
Plaintiff – Appellant,
v.
STATE OF NORTH CAROLINA,
Defendant – Appellee.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Louise W. Flanagan,
Chief District Judge. (5:11-ct-03069-FL)
Submitted: September 13, 2011 Decided: September 16, 2011
Before AGEE, DAVIS, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
T. Thorne-El, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
T. Thorne-El appeals the district court's order
dismissing his complaint without prejudice. Because Thorne-El
may amend his complaint to cure the defects identified by the
district court, the dismissal order is interlocutory and not
appealable. See Chao v. Rivendell Woods, Inc., 415 F.3d 342,
345 (4th Cir. 2005); 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 the court and
argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
