United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted:  July 25, 1996.Decided:  August 7, 1996.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke.  Samuel G. Wilson, District Judge.  (CA-96-8-R)
Joseph Riddick, Appellant Pro Se.
W.D.Va.
APPEAL DISMISSED.
Before LUTTIG and MOTZ, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.
PER CURIAM:

1
Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) complaint.  Because Appellant could have amended his complaint to assert some claim, the district court's dismissal without prejudice is not appealable.   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
