  A variety of models of physics beyond the standard model predict new
particles that decay to leptons, jets, or both together. These models include
axigluons, colorons, diquarks, excited quarks, heavy long-lived charged
particles, leptoquarks, Randall-Sundrum gravitons, string resonances, and new
vector bosons (right-handed W and Z'). Using the data collected in 2011 and
2012 at center-of-mass energies of 7 and 8 TeV, the CMS collaboration has
performed searches for these new particles in channels with leptons and jets.
The results of these searches will be presented. No evidence of new physics has
been observed, and these results set new limits on the parameters of these
models.
