PER CURIAM:

Deafueh and Juahdi Monbo (“Plaintiffs”) seek to appeal the district court’s order

denying their motion to strike the Defendant’s attorney, their request for a hearing on the

motion, and their request for entry of default judgment in their civil action alleging

defamation and intentional infliction of emotional distress. 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 Plaintiffs seek 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
