Appellee.

PER CURIAM:

               Patrick Vincent Tyler seeks to appeal the magistrate

judge’s order granting the Appellee’s motion for an extension of

time in which to file a response to Tyler’s 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255

(West    Supp.    2009)       motion,    and     denying      Tyler’s      petition      for

judgment.       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.,    337      U.S.    541

(1949).        The order Tyler 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
