UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

No. 06-2214

AURA LABRO KARAGIANNOPOULOS,

Plaintiff - Appellant,

versus

CITY OF LOWELL,

Defendant - Appellee.

Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of North Carolina, at Charlotte. Frank D. Whitney, District Judge. (3:05-cv-00401)

Submitted: January 10, 2007 Decided: June 14, 2007

Before TRAXLER, KING, and DUNCAN, Circuit Judges.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Aura LaBro Karagiannopoulos, Appellant Pro Se. Martha Raymond Thompson, STOTT, HOLLOWELL, PALMER & WINDHAM, Gastonia, North Carolina, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Aura LaBro Karagiannopoulos seeks to appeal the district

court’s order denying her motion for a default judgment. This

court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C.

§ 1291 (2000), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28

U.S.C. § 1292 (2000); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial

Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The order Karagiannopoulos

seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable

interlocutory or collateral order. See Harvey Const. Co. v.

Robertson-CECO Corp., 10 F.3d 300, 304 (5th Cir. 1994).

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 the court and

argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
