PER CURIAM:

           Casual    Bianca    Lyons   seeks    to    appeal    the   district

court’s order dismissing several claims raised in her motion

filed pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000).                   This court may

exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291

(2000),   and   certain   interlocutory      and     collateral     orders,   28

U.S.C. § 1292 (2000); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial

Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).              The order Lyons 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 also deny Lyons’ motions

for preparation of a transcript at government expense and to

seal all filings in this appeal.           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
