Before WILKINS and LUTTIG, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior
Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Ahoto Taysir Mulazim, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).

PER CURIAM:

       Ahoto   Taysir   Mulazim   appeals   the   district   court’s   order

dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000) complaint without prejudice

pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1915A (2000).       Because Mulazim may cure any

deficiency by filing an amended complaint, we dismiss the appeal

for lack of jurisdiction, because the judgment is not a final,

appealable order.       See Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local

Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993).         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

                                     3
