PER CURIAM
Nuru Yakubu, a federal inmate, seeks to appeal the magistrate judge's report and recommendation in Yakubu's 28 U.S.C. § 2241 habeas 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 magistrate judge's report and recommendation that Yakubu seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor 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.
