PER CURIAM:
Myron Roderick Nunn seeks to appeal the district court’s
failure to rule on his motion to amend a 42 U.S.C. § 1983 (2012)
complaint. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final
orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain interlocutory and
collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012); Fed. R. Civ. P.
54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-
46 (1949). Nunn’s notice of appeal challenges neither a final
order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.
Accordingly, we deny Nunn’s motion for the appointment of
counsel and 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
