    This document is an unpublished opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing an appeal from Wilbert Eugene Proffitt. The district court had transferred Proffitt's civil case to the Eastern District of Virginia. The Fourth Circuit finds that it lacks jurisdiction over the appeal because the district court's transfer order was not a final decision and does not fall under the exceptions allowing for interlocutory appeals. Therefore, the Fourth Circuit dismisses the appeal.

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