Robert Coker, Appellant Pro Se.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:

           Robert       Coker    seeks    to   appeal    the   district        court’s

order adopting the recommendation of the magistrate judge and

dismissing Coker’s 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2006) complaint against one

of the Defendants.           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 order Coker seeks to appeal is

neither    a    final    order    nor     an   appealable      interlocutory       or

collateral order.         Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack

of jurisdiction and deny Coker’s motion to appoint counsel.                         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
