PER CURIAM:
Derrick Michael Allen, Sr., seeks to appeal the district court’s orders dismissing
three of the four defendants in this civil 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 orders Allen seeks to appeal are neither final orders nor appealable
interlocutory or collateral orders. Accordingly, we deny Allen’s motions for a transcript
at government expense and dismiss the appeals 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
