PER CURIAM:

Kathy Juanita Reaves seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s text order, in which the

magistrate judge noted that, as a pro se party, Reaves was not permitted to file documents

with the court electronically. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1291

, and certain interlocutory and collateral orders,

28 U.S.C. § 1292

; Fed.

R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,

337 U.S. 541, 545-46

(1949). The

order Reaves 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 this court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED
