PER CURIAM:

     Mark Corrigan appeals the district court’s order, which ac-

cepted the magistrate judge’s recommendation in part and rejected

it in part, granting summary judgment in favor of all but one of

the Defendants named in Corrigan’s action filed under 42 U.S.C.A.

§ 1983 (West Supp. 2000), and the order denying without prejudice

Corrigan’s motion for reconsideration (No. 00-7611). Corrigan also

appeals the district court’s order denying his motion to amend the

complaint and to appoint an expert witness (No. 00-6534).   We dis-

miss the appeals for lack of jurisdiction because the orders are

not appealable.   This court may exercise jurisdiction only over

final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory

and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P.

54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).

The orders here appealed are neither final orders nor appealable

interlocutory or collateral orders.

     We dismiss the appeals as interlocutory.   We deny the motion

to strike Corrigan’s informal reply brief and 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
