Before NIEMEYER, WILLIAMS, and MICHAEL, Circuit Judges.
Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.
Pernorris Taylor, Sr., Appellant Pro Se.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Pernorris Taylor appeals from two district court orders dis-
missing without prejudice his civil complaints for failure to
comply with Fed. R. Civ. P. 8, which requires a short, plain state-
ment of the facts giving rise to each claim. Because Taylor can
amend his complaints in both cases by compliance with Rule 8, and
a dismissal without prejudice is generally unappealable, we dismiss
the appeal. Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392,
10 F.3d 1064, 1066-67 (4th Cir. 1993). 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
