USCA4 Appeal: 22-1771         Doc: 6      Filed: 09/26/2022     Pg: 2 of 2

        PER CURIAM:

               Charleatta M. Black seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying her motion

        for appointment of counsel in her pending civil action. 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 order Black seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

        appealable interlocutory or collateral order. 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

                                                     2
