PER CURIAM:

           Almia J. McCrief seeks to appeal the district court’s

orders denying his motions seeking recusal of the district court

and magistrate judges and to remand his case to state court.

This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28

U.S.C. § 1291 (2006), and certain interlocutory and collateral

orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2006); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v.

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949).                     The

orders McCrief    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

                                         2
