UNPUBLISHED
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
No. 11-7126
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,
Plaintiff - Appellee,
v.
KALU KALU,
Defendant - Appellant.
Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern
District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. James C. Dever III,
Chief District Judge. (5:09-cr-00061-D-1)
Submitted: January 17, 2012 Decided: February 7, 2012
Before DAVIS, WYNN, and DIAZ, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Kalu Kalu, Appellant Pro Se. Rudolf A. Renfer, Jr., Assistant
United States Attorney, Raleigh, North Carolina, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Kalu Kalu seeks to appeal the district court’s denial
of his motion to release funds. 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 Kalu 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 the court and argument would not aid the
decisional process.
DISMISSED
∗
The district court has yet to issue a garnishment
disposition order or act upon Kalu’s request for a hearing. We
note that, as directed by statute, the district court should not
delay the resolution of such matters. See 28 U.S.C. § 3205(c)
(2006).
