- 2 - PER CURIAM:

Charles W. Penland appeals the district court’s order

denying his motion to dismiss. 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 Penland 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 also deny Penland’s motion for an order directing

District Court Judge Anderson to recuse himself from further

proceedings in this matter and his motion for general relief. 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
