PER CURIAM:

           Samuel N. Smith seeks to appeal the district court’s

order adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

dismissing without prejudice his civil complaint for lack of

jurisdiction.      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,

545-47 (1949).         The order Smith seeks to appeal is neither a

final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order

because it is possible for him to cure the pleading deficiencies

in the complaint that were identified by the district court.

See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d

1064,   1066–67    (4th   Cir.   1993).      Accordingly,     we   dismiss    the

appeal for lack of jurisdiction.          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

                                      3
