PER CURIAM:

          Tracy Woody seeks to appeal the district court’s order

dismissing all but two of the defendants named in the underlying

civil action. 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 Woody seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accordingly, we deny

leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

                                                         DISMISSED
