Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of North Carolina, at Raleigh. Terrence W. Boyle, District Judge. (CA-94-63)

Raymond Peterson, Appellant Pro Se.

E.D.N.C.

DISMISSED.

Before WIDENER, WILKINSON and NIEMEYER, C.J.

PER CURIAM:

¶1

Appellant appeals from the district court's order dismissing his civil action under 42 U.S.C. Sec. 1983 (1988) without prejudice as frivolous. Because Appellant could cure the defects through amendment of the complaint,* the order dismissing his complaint is not appealable. Domino Sugar Corp. v. Sugar Workers Local Union 392, 10 F.3d 1064 (4th Cir.1993). Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction and deny Appellant's motion to appoint counsel. 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

*

Appellant's complaint merely alleged in conclusory fashion that the Defendants conspired to deprive him of various constitutional rights related to the conditions of his confinement
