Tekur Dalga Anbessa, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

              Tekur    Dalga    Anbessa     seeks   to   appeal   the   magistrate

judge’s order denying without prejudice his motion for leave to

file an amended complaint.            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 Anbessa 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

                                            2
