PER CURIAM:
Timothy Hall seeks to appeal the district court’s order granting Defendants’ motions
to dismiss—and, as to Hall’s former employer, granting its request to compel arbitration
regarding—Hall’s numerous civil claims. 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 Hall seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable
interlocutory or collateral order. See Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b) (“[A]ny order . . . that
adjudicates fewer than all the claims or the rights and liabilities of fewer than all the parties
does not end the action as to any of the claims or parties and may be revised at any time
before the entry of a judgment adjudicating all the claims and all the parties’ rights and
liabilities.”); Geneva Enters., LLC v. Chavez, 173 F.4th 64, 71 (4th Cir. 2026) (recognizing
that this court lacks appellate jurisdiction over a district court “order ‘granting a stay of the
action’ pending arbitration” (internal brackets omitted)).
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
