UNPUBLISHED
Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Baltimore. George Levi Russell, III, District Judge. (1:12-cv-01713-GLR) Before WILKINSON, NIEMEYER, and THACKER, Circuit Judges. Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion. Morris J. Pettigrew, Sr., Appellant Pro Se. Benjamin L. Davis, III, Michelle Jacquelyn Marzullo, MARKS, O'NEILL, O'BRIEN & COURTNEY, PC, Towson, Maryland, for Appellee. Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit. PER CURIAM:
Morris J. Pettigrew, Sr., seeks to appeal the district court's order assessing a filing fee and denying his motion to appoint counsel. 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). The order Pettigrew 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 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
