    This document summarizes an unpublished opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing an appeal for lack of jurisdiction. Steven Glenn Johnson sought to appeal orders from the district court granting North Carolina's motion to set aside a default judgment and denying Johnson's post-judgment motions. The Fourth Circuit determined that the orders were not final orders or appealable interlocutory or collateral orders, so the court lacked jurisdiction over the appeal and dismissed the case.
