2 PER CURIAM:

Robert Lee Harris seeks to appeal the district court’s

order granting his motion for an extension of time to file a

response to the magistrate judge’s recommendation in his

underlying action pursuant to Bivens v. Six Unknown Agents of

the Fed. Bureau of Narcotics,

403 U.S. 388

(1971). 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

Harris 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
