Columbia, South Carolina, for Appellee.


Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
See Local Rule 36(c).
PER CURIAM:

          Tekoa T. Glover seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s

order denying his motions for speedy resolution of his 28 U.S.C.

§ 2254 (2000) petition, for bond, and for joinder of parties.       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 Glover seeks to

appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or

collateral    order.   Accordingly,   we   deny   a   certificate     of

appealability and 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
