PER CURIAM:

              Bruce    Wayne    Koenig       seeks        to    appeal     the    district

court’s order dismissing without prejudice Koenig’s co-plaintiff

and granting Koenig leave to proceed in forma pauperis.                                  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 Koenig 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
