    The document is a court case from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit. It involves an appeal by David E. Dixon of the district court's denial of his motion for summary judgment. The Court of Appeals dismisses the appeal, finding that the district court's order is not a final appealable order, as it did not resolve the entire case. The Court of Appeals does not have jurisdiction to hear appeals of non-final interlocutory orders. As the order appealed did not end the case, the Court dismisses the appeal as interlocutory.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Dec. 19, 1996.
    Decided Jan. 6, 1997.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South
    Carolina, at Charleston. G. Ross Anderson, Jr., District Judge. (CA-951463-3BD)

    David E. Dixon, Appellant Pro Se.


    Sandra J. Senn, STUCKEY & SENN, Charleston, South Carolina, for
    Appellees.
    D.S.C.
    APPEAL DISMISSED.
    Before ERVIN and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior
    Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM.

    Appellant appeals the district court's order adopting the magistrate judge's
    recommendation to deny Appellant's motion for summary judgment. 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 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
