PER CURIAM.

Beck, a Minnesota prisoner, appeals the magistrate judge’s1

 order requiring him

either to pay the full filing fee if he wishes to pursue all of his claims, or to pay an

initial partial filing fee if he wishes to pursue only his medical-needs claim. We

dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction. The magistrate judge’s order is nonfinal,

and it is not immediately appealable as a collateral order because it grants in forma

pauperis status in part and is not effectively unreviewable on appeal from final

judgment. See 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (appellate jurisdiction over appeals from final orders

of district courts); Kassuelke v. Alliant Techsys., Inc., 223 F.3d 929, 931 (8th Cir.

2000) (collateral-order exception).

Accordingly, we dismiss this appeal. We also deny Beck’s motion for

appointment of counsel.
