PER CURIAM:

Jeffrey Sanders seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing claims against

Defendant Union County Jail and unnamed defendants in Sanders’ 42 U.S.C. § 1983

action. 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). “Ordinarily, a district court

order is not final until it has resolved all claims as to all parties.” Porter v. Zook, 803 F.3d

694, 696 (4th Cir. 2015) (internal quotation marks omitted).

The order Sanders seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable

interlocutory or collateral order. Specifically, our review of the record reveals that the

district court has not adjudicated the claims against Defendant Diane, and the matter is still

pending. 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
