PER CURIAM:

       Alice Guan seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s order granting Guan’s original

and amended motions for an extension of time to file responses in opposition to

Defendants’ motions to dismiss Guan’s first amended complaint. 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 magistrate judge’s order is neither a final order

nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for

lack of jurisdiction. We deny as moot all pending motions. 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

                                            3
