PER CURIAM:

     John Lebon appeals the district court’s order quashing an

earlier show cause order and requiring defendant EMSA Correctional

Care, Inc. to file a status report regarding the actions taken to

alleviate the health care claims enumerated by Lebon in his 42

U.S.C.A. § 1983 (West Supp. 2001) complaint. We dismiss the appeal

for lack of jurisdiction because the order is not appealable.

     This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory and collateral

orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v.

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).   The order here

appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory

or collateral order.

     We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory. 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
