No. 96-6364.
United States Court of Appeals, Fourth Circuit.
Submitted Sept. 20, 1996.Decided Oct. 1, 1996.

Roosevelt Montie Raines, Appellant Pro Se.  David Bernard Smith, Assistant United States Attorney, Greensboro, North Carolina, for Appellee.
Before NIEMEYER, HAMILTON, and MOTZ, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:

1
Appellant appeals from the magistrate judge's report and recommendation and order denying leave to file a brief in excess of the page limitations.  We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is not appealable.  This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994);  Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b);   Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.  Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).  The order here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.

2
We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory.  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.

3
DISMISSED.
