Maryland, for Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

           Vincent Easley seeks to appeal the district court’s

order denying without prejudice his motions to transfer and 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 Easley seeks to appeal is neither a final

order   nor   an   appealable    interlocutory     or   collateral     order.

Accordingly, we deny Easley’s pending motion to appoint counsel

and 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
