PER CURIAM:

Yuri J. Stoyanov seeks to appeal the district court’s orders denying Stoyanov’s 

(1) most recent of several motions attempting to stay the district court proceedings; and 

(2) motion for reconsideration of the court’s order denying the motion to stay. This court 

may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and certain interlocutory 

and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292; Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. 

Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The orders Stoyanov seeks to appeal are neither 

final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. 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
