PER CURIAM:
Benjamin K. Quarmon seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing without prejudice his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012)
civil rights action. This court may exercise jurisdiction only
over final orders, 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, 545-47 (1949). Because the deficiencies
identified by the district court may be remedied by the filing
of an amended complaint, we conclude that the order Quarmon
seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable
interlocutory or collateral order. 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
