  We investigate the propagation of electron vortex beams in a magnetic field.
It is pointed out that when electron vortex beams carrying orbital angular
momentum propagate in a magnetic field, the Berry curvature associated with the
scalar electron moving in a cyclic path around the vortex line is modified from
that in free space. This alters the spin-orbit interaction, which affects the
propagation of nonparaxial beams. The electron vortex beams with tilted vortex
lead to spin Hall effect in free space. In presence of a magnetic field in time
space we have spin filtering such that either positive or negative spin states
emerge in spin Hall currents with clustering of spin $\frac{1}{2}$ states.
