PER CURIAM:

          Theodore Thomas Wagner seeks to appeal the district

court’s order adopting the magistrate judge’s recommendation to

deny Appellees’ motion to dismiss or for summary judgment and

granting the parties additional time to file dispositive motions.

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

Wagner 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
