    Darrell Lee Witts, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:
    Darrell Lee Witts seeks to appeal the district courts
    order,

    which,

    inter

    alia,

    appointment of counsel.

    denied

    his

    second

    request

    for

    This court may exercise jurisdiction

    only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. 1291 (2006), and certain


    interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. 1292 (2006);
    Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,
    337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949).
    neither

    final

    order

    nor

    The order Witts seeks to appeal is


    an

    appealable

    interlocutory

    or

    collateral order.

    Accordingly, we dismiss the appeal for lack

    of jurisdiction.

    We dispense with oral argument because the

    facts

    and

    materials

    legal
    before

    contentions
    the

    court

    are

    adequately

    and

    argument

    presented

    would

    not

    in

    the

    aid

    the

    decisional process.

    DISMISSED
