Gregory A. Richard, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:

Gregory A. Richardson seeks to appeal the district

court’s order in his 28 U.S.A. § 2254 (2006) petition giving him

fourteen days to comply with his prefiling injunction. This

court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1291

(2006), and certain interlocutory and collateral

orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1292

(2006); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v.

Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,

337 U.S. 541, 545-46

(1949). The

order Richardson seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an

appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accordingly, we

deny leave to proceed in forma pauperis and 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
