See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

     Appellant appeals an order dismissing one portion of his 42

U.S.C. § 1983 (1988) claim and holding in abeyance the remaining

portions of his claim. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdic-

tion because the order is not appealable. This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1988), and
certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292

(1988); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan
Corp., 

 (1949). The order here appealed is neither a

final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.

     We dismiss the 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
