Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Alexandria. Claude M. Hilton, Senior District Judge. (1:21-cv-00903-CMH-TCB)

Dan C. Gramatic, Appellant Pro Se.

Meghan Elizabeth Loftus, Assistant United States Attorney, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Alexandria, Virginia, for Appellee.

Before WYNN and THACKER, Circuit Judges, and FLOYD, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM.

Dan C. Gramatic seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's order denying his self-styled motion to continue disability benefit payments and the district court's order transferring his case to the United States District Court for the District of Colorado. 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). The orders Gramatic seeks to appeal are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. See TechnoSteel, LLC v. Beers Constr. Co., 271 F.3d 151, 160-161 (4th Cir. 2001) (holding that court of appeals lacks jurisdiction to review transfer order once case file is transferred to court outside circuit and nonappealable interlocutory or collateral decisions also transfer with case). 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
