PER CURIAM:

Carlos R. Mayberry appeals the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983 complaint without prejudice under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(b) for failure to state a claim 

upon which relief may be granted and for lack of jurisdiction.

1 See Britt v. DeJoy, 45 F.4th 

790, 791 (4th Cir. 2022) (en banc) (explaining dismissal without prejudice is final if district 

court does not grant leave to amend). We have reviewed the record, as well as Mayberry’s 

informal brief and his affidavits filed in this court,2 and we find no reversible error in the 

district court’s determination that Mayberry failed to state a plausible claim for relief. 

Accordingly, we affirm the district court’s order on that basis. Mayberry v. The Carlos 

Mayberry Trust, No. 1:23-cv-02350-PX (D. Md., Sept. 18, 2023). 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.

AFFIRMED

1 The district court’s order of dismissal without prejudice is a final, appealable order 

because the court did not grant Mayberry leave to amend. See Britt v. DeJoy, 45 F.4th 790, 

796 (4th Cir. 2022) (en banc).

2 We deny Mayberry’s motion for an extension of time to file a formal opening brief.
