    This document is an unpublished court opinion from the United States Court of Appeals for the Fourth Circuit dismissing an appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The court finds that the district court's order granting an extension of time to the defendant was not a final, appealable order as it did not dispose of all issues between all parties or direct entry of final judgment. As such, the court has no jurisdiction over the appeal and dismisses the case as interlocutory.

    Peggy M. PLEDGER, Plaintiff-Appellant,
    v.
    Anthony M. FRANK, Postmaster General of the United States,
    Defendant-Appellee.
    No. 90-1809.

    United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.


    Submitted Oct. 1, 1990.
    Decided Oct. 26, 1990.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
    North Carolina, at Raleigh. W. Earl Britt, District Judge. (CA-87-1070-5CIV)
    Peggy M. Pledger, appellant pro se.
    Thomas Philip Swain, Assistant United States Attorney, Raleigh, N.C.,
    Alice Lucille Covington, United States Postal Service, Washington, D.C.,
    Michael Propst, Office of Field Legal Services, Philadelphia, Pa., for
    appellee.
    E.D.N.C.
    DISMISSED.
    Before RUSSELL and PHILLIPS, Circuit Judges, and BUTZNER, Senior
    Circuit Judge.
    PER CURIAM:

    Peggy M. Pledger appeals the district court's grant of an extension of time to the
    defendant. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction.

    Under 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1291 this Court has jurisdiction over appeals from final
    orders. A final order is one which disposes of all issues in dispute as to all
    parties. It "ends the litigation on the merits and leaves nothing for the court to
    do but execute the judgment." Catlin v. United States, 324 U.S. 229, 233
    (1945).

    As the order appealed from is not a final order, it is not appealable under 28
    U.S.C. Sec. 1291. The district court has not directed entry of final judgment as
    to particular claims or parties under Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b), nor is the order
    appealable under the provisions of 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1292. Finally, the order is not
    appealable as a collateral order under Cohen v. Beneficial Industrial Loan
    Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).

    Finding no basis for appellate jurisdiction, we dismiss the appeal as


    interlocutory.* 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.

    In light of our view of this appeal, we grant appellee's motion to dismiss the
    appeal
