PER CURIAM:

      Dr. Happy Smith seeks to appeal the district court’s order

denying   his   motion   for   reconsideration           in    Jason     Gilmer’s      42

U.S.C.    § 1983     (2012)    action.           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 Smith 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
