See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:
Curtis Dale Richardson seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing his 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2000), claim against all but
two Defendants. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over
final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2000), and certain interlocutory
and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2000); Fed. R. Civ. P.
54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).
The order Richardson 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
