PER CURIAM:

              Stuart Wayne Tompkins seeks to appeal the magistrate

judge’s order denying his motion for appointment of counsel and

striking      his   first     set   of   interrogatories      and   request      for

production of documents.            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.,

, 545-46 (1949).             The order Tompkins 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   the    court     and    argument   would    not    aid   the

decisional process.

                                                                          DISMISSED
