PER CURIAM:
Aaron M. Burns seeks to appeal from the district court’s order denying
reconsideration of the dismissal without prejudice of his claims against Defendants at
Chesapeake Correctional Center, Nottoway Correctional Center, and Western Tidewater
Regional Jail based on improper joinder of claims, and dismissing two of the four claims
he asserted against Defendants at Hampton Roads Regional Jail in his 42 U.S.C. § 1983
(2012) complaint. 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 order Burns 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.
DISMISSED
