Thomas A. Chilton, III, Appellant Pro Se. Donald Eldridge
Jeffrey, III, Assistant Attorney General, Richmond, Virginia,
for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Thomas A. Chilton, III, seeks to appeal the district
court’s order denying his motion for a change of venue. 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 Chilton seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an
appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See Ellicott
Mach. Corp. v. Modern Welding Co., 502 F.2d 178, 180 (4th Cir.
1974). 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
