David M. Mattis, Appellant Pro Se.        Jason Kenneth Purser,
SHAPIRO & INGLE LLP, Charlotte, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

            David M. Mattis seeks to appeal the district court’s

order    remanding     the     underlying   foreclosure       action       to   North

Carolina   state     court.       We   dismiss      the    appeal    for     lack   of

jurisdiction.

            Subject to exceptions not applicable here, “[a]n order

remanding a case to the State court from which it was removed is

not reviewable on appeal or otherwise.”                    28 U.S.C. § 1447(d)

(2012); see E.D. ex rel. Darcy v. Pfizer, Inc., 722 F.3d 574,

581-83 (4th Cir. 2013).          Because the district court’s order does

not fall within any of the exceptions provided by § 1447, the

order is not appealable.         We therefore dismiss the appeal.

            We dispense with oral argument because the facts and

legal    contentions     are     adequately   presented       in     the    material

before   this   court    and    argument    would    not    aid     the    decisional

process.

                                                                            DISMISSED

                                        2
