LENIR RICHARDSON v. FAULK 2908 CUSTER 3756 OFFICER RIZZA COMMONWEALTH OF ATTORNEY MARIO TORRES (2016)

United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.

LENIR RICHARDSON, Plaintiff - Appellant, v. O. J. FAULK, Officer, badge #2908; D. N. CUSTER, Officer, badge #3756; OFFICER RIZZA; COMMONWEALTH OF ATTORNEY; MARIO TORRES, Sergeant, Defendants - Appellees.

No. 16-1125

Decided: May 31, 2016

Before TRAXLER, Chief Judge, and NIEMEYER and FLOYD, Circuit Judges.

Lenir Richardson, Appellant Pro Se. Kimberly Pace Baucom, Assistant County Attorney, Fairfax, Virginia, for Appellees.

Lenir Richardson seeks to appeal the district court's order denying her motion to remand and denying her motion for recusal. 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, 545-46 (1949). The order Richardson seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Richardson may seek review of these decisions on appeal from the court's final judgment. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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.
