UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 09-1086

BRENDA BROWN,

Plaintiff – Appellant,

v.

GREEN SPRING VILLAGE INCORPORATED,

Defendant – Appellee,

and

ERICKSON RETIREMENT COMMUNITY GREEN SPRING VILLAGE,

Defendant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern

District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Leonie M. Brinkema,

District Judge. (1:08-cv-01043-LMB-TRJ)

Submitted: July 30, 2009 Decided: August 3, 2009

Before MOTZ, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Brenda Brown, Appellant Pro Se. Joseph Dudley McCluskey,

JACKSON LEWIS, LLP, Richmond, Virginia, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Brenda Brown seeks to appeal the district court’s

order granting in part and denying in part Defendant’s motion to

dismiss her civil complaint. This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2006),

and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C.

§ 1292 (2006); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.

Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). Because one of Brown’s claims

remains pending below, the order Brown seeks to appeal is

neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or

collateral order. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack

of jurisdiction. 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
