PER CURIAM:

In No. 07-1433, Sergeant M. A. Reeves appeals from the

district court’s order denying his motion for summary judgment

based on qualified immunity in the 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) action

brought against him by Alan J. Cilman. We have reviewed the record

and find no reversible error. Accordingly, we affirm for the

reasons stated by the district court. Cilman v. Reeves, No. 1:06-

cv-01099-GBL (E.D. Va. June 21, 2007).

In No. 07-1450, Cilman noted a cross-appeal, seeking to

appeal the district court’s order to the extent that it granted

summary judgment in favor of the Town of Vienna on his supervisory

liability claims. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over

final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2000), and certain interlocutory

and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2000); Fed. R. Civ. P.

54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).

The order Cilman seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See Swint v.

Chambers County Comm’n, 514 U.S. 35, 45-51 (1995); Bailey v.

Kennedy, 349 F.3d 731, 734, 738 (4th Cir. 2003). Accordingly, we

dismiss appeal No. 07-1450 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.

No. 07-1433 AFFIRMED

No. 07-1450 DISMISSED
