        PER CURIAM:

               Yuri J. Stoyanov seeks to appeal the district court’s orders denying Stoyanov’s

        (1) most recent of several motions attempting to stay the district court proceedings; and

        (2) motion for reconsideration of the court’s order denying the motion to stay. This court

        may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and certain interlocutory

        and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292; Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.

        Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The orders Stoyanov seeks to appeal are neither

        final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders. 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

                                                     4
