UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. Lawrence Elie MEGGISON, Defendant-Appellant, 193 F. App'x 250

PER CURIAM: Lawrence Elie Meggison seeks to appeal the district court’s order directing Meggison to inform the court whether he wished the court to construe a pleading as a 28 U.S.C. § 2255 (2000) motion and, if so, to complete and submit the proper form. 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, 69 S.Ct. 1221, 93 L.Ed. 1528 (1949).

The order Meggison 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.
