Richard E. FOSTER, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. CITY OF GREENVILLE FIRE DEPARTMENT; Chief W.T. (Tommy) McDowell, Fire Marshall; L.H. Godfrey, Assistant Fire Marshall; R.A. Cook; Kenny V. Crosby, Director of Human Resources, Defendants-Appellees, 42 F. App'x 595

PER CURIAM. Richard E. Foster appeals the district court’s order dismissing individual defendants from his employment discrimination action. We dismiss the appeal for lack of jurisdiction because the order is not ap-pealable. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1994), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1994); 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 here appealed is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.

We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory. 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.
