PER CURIAM:
William E. Smith seeks to appeal the district court’s
order granting partial summary judgment to Appellees on his 42
U.S.C. § 1983 (2012) suit. 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 Smith 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
