UNPUBLISHED

UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS
FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 20-7180

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff - Appellee,

v.

CURTIS JEROME BROWN, SR.,

Defendant - Appellant.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of South Carolina, at
Charleston. David C. Norton, District Judge. (2:94-cr-00022-DCN-5)

Submitted: December 17, 2020 Decided: December 22, 2020

Before THACKER, HARRIS, and QUATTLEBAUM, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Curtis Jerome Brown, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

Curtis Jerome Brown, Sr., seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying his

self-styled “Motion for Release and Motion in Opposition to Respondent[’]s Motion to

Dismiss” filed in his pending 28 U.S.C. § 2255 proceeding. This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and certain interlocutory and

collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292; Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan

Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-47 (1949). 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 this court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
