Edward W. Jefferson, Appellant Pro Se.

Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.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

Edward W. Jefferson seeks to appeal the district

court’s order dismissing all but one of his claims and denying

all but one of his motions to amend the underlying complaint.

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 Jefferson 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 dismiss

Jefferson’s motions for relief pending appeal and 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
