PER CURIAM:

Carl E. McAdoo seeks to appeal the district court’s order 

accepting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and 

dismissing all defendants except Joyce Ann Nash in McAdoo’s 

civil action. 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 McAdoo seeks to appeal is neither a 

final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. 

Accordingly, we 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
