Rodney Lee Rodis, Appellant Pro Se. Eugene Paul Murphy, OFFICE
OF THE ATTORNEY GENERAL OF VIRGINIA, Richmond, Virginia, for
Appellee.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

              Rodney     Lee   Rodis   seeks    to   appeal    the    magistrate

judge’s      order     outlining   procedural    and   clerical      directives.

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 Rodis seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

appealable interlocutory or collateral order.                  Accordingly, we

deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis 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 the court and argument would not aid the

decisional process.

                                                                       DISMISSED

                                        2
