PER CURIAM:

Eric E. Miller seeks to appeal the district court’s order 

dismissing his civil complaint without prejudice pursuant to 28 

U.S.C. § 1915(e)(2)(B) (2012). This court may exercise 

jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), 

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

§ 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. 

Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order Miller seeks 

to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable 

interlocutory or collateral order. See Goode v. Central Va. 

Legal Aid, 807 F.3d 619 (4th Cir. 2015). Accordingly, we 

dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction and remand the case 

to the district court with instructions to allow Miller to file 

an amended complaint. The motions to amend the complaint and to 

order a reparative injunction are denied. 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 AND REMANDED
