PER CURIAM:

              Nathaniel    Dante    Rice       seeks    to   appeal   the    district

court’s order granting his motions to amend his complaint, but

dismissing the amended complaints except as to one claim.                           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 Rice 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

                                           3
