    This document is an unpublished opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing an appeal from Mesfin Ketema. The Court of Appeals lacks jurisdiction to hear the appeal because the district court orders Ketema seeks to appeal - which denied motions for sanctions, removal of the magistrate judge, and subpoenas - are not final orders or appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. Accordingly, the Court of Appeals dismisses the appeal and denies all pending motions.

    versus
    MIDWEST STAMPING, INCORPORATED; TERRY JUDY;
    TEDD BALDWIN; CYNTHIA THOMPSON; KIMDRA BELSER,

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of

    Joseph F. Anderson, Jr., Chief
    District Judge. (CA-02-502-3)

    Submitted:

    Before WIDENER and NIEMEYER, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Mesfin Ketema, Appellant Pro Se. Derwood Lorraine Aydlette, III,


    Christina Marie Summer, GIGNILLIAT, SAVITZ & BETTIS, Columbia,
    South Carolina; Kenneth R. Young, Jr., Sumter, South Carolina, for
    Appellees.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Mesfin Ketema seeks to appeal the district courts orders
    denying Ketemas motions for sanctions, removal of the magistrate
    judge and subpoenas.
    over

    final

    orders,

    This court may exercise jurisdiction only


    28

    U.S.C.

    1291

    (2000),

    and

    certain

    interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. 1292 (2000); Fed.


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

    The orders Ketema seeks to appeal are neither final

    orders

    appealable

    nor

    interlocutory

    or

    collateral

    orders.

    Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and dismiss


    the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

    We also deny all of Ketemas

    pending motions, including his motions for an injunction, to join


    parties, to expedite, to join claims, and for en banc review.

    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
