Robert Holland Koon, Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Robert Holland Koon seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and denying Koon’s motions for temporary
restraining orders. 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 Koon seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable
interlocutory or collateral order. See Office of Pers. Mgmt. v. Am. Fed’n of Gov’t Emps.,
473 U.S. 1301, 1303-05 (1985); Drudge v. McKernon, 482 F.2d 1375, 1376 (4th Cir.
1973) (per curiam). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. We
deny Koon’s pending motion, which seeks to expedite the decision, to order the district
court to place the case in abeyance, to order the district court to deliver the record to the
Supreme Court, and to send him copies of filed documents. 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
