PER CURIAM:

Momolu V.S. Sirleaf seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s 

order denying his motion for appointment of counsel without 

prejudice. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final 

orders of the district court, 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 Sirleaf seeks to 

appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory 

or collateral order. Accordingly, we deny Sirleaf’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
