PER CURIAM:

       Tamar Devell Harvey seeks to appeal the district court’s orders granting summary

judgment to some, but not all of the defendants. 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,

545-46 (1949). “Ordinarily, a district court order is not final until it has resolved all claims

as to all parties.” Porter v. Zook, 803 F.3d 694, 696 (4th Cir. 2015) (internal quotation

marks omitted).

       Our review of the record reveals that the district court has not yet adjudicated all of

the claims raised in Harvey’s complaint. Id. at 696-97. Specifically, the court has not yet

adjudicated the unresolved claims against the remaining defendants. We conclude that the

orders Harvey seeks to appeal are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or

collateral orders. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction and remand

to the district court for consideration of the unresolved claims. 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 AND REMANDED

                                               3
