PER CURIAM:
Ward Mohler appeals an order of the district court trans-
ferring his postconviction proceeding from the District of Maryland
to the Western District of Virginia. We dismiss the appeal for
lack of jurisdiction because the order is not appealable. 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 (1949). The order here appealed is
neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral
order. Van Orman v. Purkett, 43 F.3d 1201, 1202-03 (8th Cir. 1994);
Middlebrooks v. Smith, 735 F.2d 431, 432-33 (11th Cir. 1984).
We deny a certificate of appealability and 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
