PER CURIAM:
Jerome McFadden seeks to appeal the district court’s
text order denying his motion seeking reconsideration of several
nondispositive orders issued by the magistrate judge, including
orders denying his motions for appointment of counsel and for an
extension of time to complete discovery, and an order granting
in part and denying in part McFadden’s motion to stay
Defendants’ summary judgment motion. 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., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order McFadden
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 this court and argument would not aid
the decisional process.
DISMISSED
