Appeal from the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Virginia, at Norfolk. Henry Coke Morgan, Jr., Senior District Judge. (CA-04-641-2)

Before NIEMEYER and SHEDD, Circuit Judges, and HAMILTON, Senior Circuit Judge.

Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

Jerry Lewis Adams, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Jerry Lewis Adams seeks to appeal the district court’s

order ordering him to submit the required number of copies of his

complaint and denying his motion to amend. This court may exercise

jurisdiction only over final orders,

(2000), and

certain interlocutory and collateral orders,

(2000); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan

Corp.,

(1949). The order Adams 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 deny Adams’ motion for joinder of separate claims

and his motion to file a supplemental informal brief. 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
