PER CURIAM

Tigress McDaniel seeks to appeal the district court's order (a) denying McDaniel's motions to amend her pro se complaint; (b) granting the motions to dismiss filed by all but one of the named Defendants and dismissing those claims with prejudice; and (c) directing McDaniel to show cause why the lone remaining Defendant, Bluestem Sales, Inc., should not be dismissed from the action. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291, and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292; Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order that McDaniel seeks to appeal is neither a final order, given that litigation on her remaining claims is ongoing, nor is it an appealable interlocutory or collateral order. Accordingly, we dismiss this 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
