PER CURIAM:

             Brandon Roberts seeks to appeal the district court’s

order   denying    his   motion   for       discovery          in   this    action    filed

under   42    U.S.C.     § 1983   (2012).               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 Roberts

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
