                                2
PER CURIAM:

       Walter Lee seeks to appeal the district court’s order and

the district court clerk’s letter stating the requirements for

filing an action in forma pauperis.                          This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders of the district court, 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., 
337 U.S. 541
, 545-46 (1949).                             The

order and letter that Lee seeks to appeal are neither final

orders    nor    appealable         interlocutory            or    collateral    orders.

Accordingly,     we    deny     leave     to       proceed    in   forma   pauperis    and

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
