Ya Jelani Simba, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

          Ya Jelani Simba   seeks to appeal the   magistrate judge’s

dismissal of his § 1983 complaint without prejudice to filing a new

complaint.    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 Simba seeks to appeal is not an appealable interlocutory or

collateral order.   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 the court and argument would not

aid the decisional process.

                                                          DISMISSED
