    This document summarizes two appeals brought by Leroy Thurston against his former employer Louisa County Public Schools (No. 01-2156) and United Parcel Service and an assistant superintendent (No. 01-2157). In the first case (No. 01-2156), the appeals court affirmed the district court's dismissal of Thurston's claims against Louisa County Public Schools for failure to state a claim. In the second case (No. 01-2157), the appeals court dismissed Thurston's appeal of the district court's partial dismissal of claims against one defendant for lack of jurisdiction, as the order was not final or appealable and the claims against the other defendant were still pending

    November 15, 2001

    Before WILKINS, MICHAEL, and KING, Circuit Judges.

    No. 01-2156 affirmed and No. 01-2157 dismissed by unpublished per


    curiam opinion.
    Leroy Thurston, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    In these consolidated cases, Leroy Thurston appeals from the
    district courts order dismissing without prejudice for failure to
    state a claim of an action brought against a former employer (No.
    01-2156).

    We have reviewed the record and the district courts

    opinion and find no reversible error.

    Accordingly, we affirm on

    the reasoning of the district court.

    Thurston v. Louisa Cnty.

    Public Sch., No. CA-01-84-3 (W.D. Va. filed Aug. 27, 2001; entered
    Aug. 28, 2001).

    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.
    In No. 01-2157, Thurston appeals from the district courts
    order dismissing without prejudice his claims as to Defendant
    Collins for failure to state a claim, but allowing the action to
    proceed as to the Defendant United Parcel Service (No. 01-2157).
    We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is
    not appealable.

    This court may exercise jurisdiction only over

    final orders, 28 U.S.C. 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory


    and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. 1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P.
    54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).
    The order here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable
    interlocutory or collateral order.
    interlocutory.

    We dismiss this appeal as

    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.
