PER CURIAM:

       James C. McNeill seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing his 42 U.S.C.

§ 1983 (2012) action without prejudice as to some, but not all, defendants on the ground

that McNeill did not show good cause for failure to obtain service as to those defendants.

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 McNeill

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
