PER CURIAM:
Andre Juste seeks to appeal the district court’s order accepting the
recommendation of the magistrate judge and dismissing Juste’s civil action without
prejudice. We may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders of the district court, 28
U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292
(2012); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541,
545-46 (1949). We conclude that the order Juste seeks to appeal is neither a final order
nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See Goode v. Cent. Va. Legal Aid
Soc’y, 807 F.3d 619 (4th Cir. 2015).
Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction and remand the case to
the district court with instructions to allow Juste to reinstate his case and file an amended
complaint. 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 AND REMANDED
