Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Josephat Mua, Appellant Pro Se. James Edward Fisher, Abbey G.
Hairston, THATCHER LAW FIRM, Greenbelt, Maryland, for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Josephat Mua seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing Count V of his complaint, staying the remainder
of his claims, and administratively closing his case pending
resolution of his state and county administrative proceedings.
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, 545-46 (1949). The
order Mua 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 also deny Mua’s
motion to appoint counsel. 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
