Eric L. Tolbert, Appellant Pro Se.

PER CURIAM:

            Eric L. Tolbert seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying his motion to appoint counsel.                          This court may

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

(2006),    and    certain     interlocutory       and       collateral      orders,    28

U.S.C. § 1292 (2006); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial

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

Tolbert     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    the   court     and

argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                                               DISMISSED

                                            2
