        PER CURIAM:

               Kathy Reaves seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the magistrate

        judge’s recommendation and partially dismissing Reaves’ amended complaint. This court

        may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and certain interlocutory

        and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292; Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.

        Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order Reaves seeks to appeal is neither a

        final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See Porter v. Zook, 803 F.3d

        694, 696 (4th Cir. 2015) (“Ordinarily, a district court order is not final until it has resolved

        all claims as to all parties.” (cleaned up)). 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
