PER CURIAM:

           Michael Scott Perkinson seeks to appeal the district

court’s order denying his motion for appointment of counsel.

This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28

U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and collateral

orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v.

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 

, 545-46 (1949).                    The

order Perkinson seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

appealable    interlocutory      or    collateral     order.         Miller   v.

Simmons, 

, 964-67 (4th Cir. 1987).                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
