Turner v. McCauley

UNPUBLISHED UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT No. 95-7716 MARK A. TURNER, Plaintiff - Appellant, and TERRELL HALL; JAMES FARROW; CARLOS FERRIERA, Plaintiffs, versus JAMES MCCAULEY, Director, Richland County Detention Center; LIEUTENANT, Richland County Detention Center, Defendants - Appellees. Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at Columbia. William B. Traxler, Jr., District Judge. (CA-95-2149-3-21BC) Submitted: April 15, 1996 Decided: April 25, 1996 Before ERVIN and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and CHAPMAN, Senior Circuit Judge. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Mark A. Turner, Appellant Pro Se. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. See Local Rule 36(c). 2 PER CURIAM: Appellant appeals from the district court's order adopting the magistrate judge's report and recommendation and dismissing without prejudice this complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988). The order is not appealable because the defect upon which the dismissal was based could be cured by amending the complaint. See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064 (4th Cir. 1993). Accordingly, this Court does not have jurisdiction over this appeal and it must be dismissed. 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 3
