PER CURIAM:

     Harold Gene Barrow, III, appeals from the district court’s

order denying his motion to dismiss the indictment. We dismiss the

appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is not appeal-

able.   Although Barrow has entered a conditional guilty plea and

his plea has been accepted by the district court, he has not yet

been sentenced.   This Court may exercise jurisdiction only over

final orders, 28 U.S.C.A. § 1291 (West 1993), and certain inter-

locutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C.A. § 1292 (West 1993 &

Supp. 2000 ); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.

Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The order denying Barrow’s motion

to dismiss the indictment on the ground that the statute Barrow was

charged with violating was unconstitutional is neither a final

order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accord-

ingly, we dismiss the appeal as interlocutory.    We dispense with

oral argument because the facts and legal contentions are adequate-

ly presented in the materials before the Court and argument would

not aid the decisional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
