          Appeal from the United States District Court
              for the Western District of Louisiana
                       USDC No. 3:05-CV-992
                       --------------------

Before KING, WIENER, and OWEN, Circuit Judges.

PER CURIAM:*

     William Malone, federal prisoner # 23100-009, appeals from a

judgment dismissing his Bivens** excessive force claims and his

constitutionally inadequate medical care claims against only

certain of the named defendants.   Malone argues that the district

court erred in not effecting service of process on the defendants



     *
       Pursuant to 5TH CIR. R. 47.5, the court has determined that
this opinion should not be published and is not precedent except
under the limited circumstances set forth in 5TH CIR. R. 47.5.4.
     **
       Bivens v. Six Unknown Named Agents of Federal Bureau of
Narcotics, 403 U.S. 388 (1971).

                                  -2-

who remained in the litigation and against whom he stated an

excessive force claim.

     This court may hear appeals only from “final decisions”

under 28 U.S.C. § 1291, interlocutory decisions under 28 U.S.C.

§ 1292, nonfinal judgments certified as final under FED. R. CIV.

P. 54(b), or some other nonfinal order or judgment to which an

exception applies.   Clark v. Johnson, 278 F.3d 459, 460 (5th Cir.

2002).   Jurisdiction over Malone’s appeal does not lie under

§ 1291 because the district court’s judgment did not end the

litigation on the merits against all parties.    See Firestone Tire

& Rubber Co. v. Risjord, 449 U.S. 368, 373-74 (1981).   Because

the district court’s dismissal of Malone’s unexhausted claims and

excessive force claims against only certain of the defendants is

not “effectively unreviewable” on appeal, jurisdiction also does

not lie under the collateral order doctrine.    See Cohen v.

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 546 (1949).

     Finally, jurisdiction does not lie under § 1292, see

§ 1292(a), and the district court did not certify the judgment as

final under FED. R. CIV. P. 54(b); therefore, jurisdiction also

cannot rest on that basis.    See Clark, 278 F.3d at 460.   We

therefore lack jurisdiction to entertain Malone’s appeal.

     APPEAL DISMISSED.
