PER CURIAM:
Freeman L. Hankins seeks to appeal the district court’s
order dismissing some of his claims as frivolous in his 42 U.S.C.
§ 1983 (2000) action. 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 (1949). The order Hankins 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
grant Hankins’ motions to amend his informal brief and deny his
motions to appoint counsel, to amend his complaint for summary
judgment and “to file 28 U.S.C. § 1331.” 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
