Robb M. Harksen, Appellant Pro Se. Mark Ralph Davis OFFICE OF THE
ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellees.

See Local Rule 36(c).




                                2
PER CURIAM:

     Robb M. Harksen appeals the district court’s order dismissing

without prejudice some but not all of Harksen’s claims brought

pursuant to 42 U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) for failure to

state a claim under 28 U.S.C.A. § 1915A (West Supp. 2001).       We

dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is

not appealable.   This court may exercise jurisdiction only over

final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory

and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P.

54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).

The order here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable

interlocutory or collateral order.

     We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory.     We deny Harksen’s

motion for a ruling on a motion in the district court.   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
