PER CURIAM:

John S. Stritzinger seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s 

order denying his motion to reopen his case. This court may 

exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 

(2012), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 

28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. 

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The 

order Stritzinger seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor 

an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. See 28 U.S.C. 

§ 636(b) (2012). Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in forma 

pauperis, deny Stritzinger’s pending motions, and 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
