OPINION
PER CURIAM:

1
Michael Keith Estep seeks to appeal the district court's orders granting the Tazewell County Jail's Motion to Dismiss and denying Estep's Motion for Reconsideration.  We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the orders are not appealable.  This Court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1291 (1988), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1292 (1988);  Fed.  R. Civ. P. 54(b);  Cohen v. Beneficial Industrial Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).  The orders here appealed are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders.

2
We grant the Tazewell County Jail's Motion to Dismiss this 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.

DISMISSED
