Derrick Jerome Truttling, Appellant Pro Se. Ashley Brooke
Neese, OFFICE OF THE UNITED STATES ATTORNEY, Roanoke, Virginia,
for Appellee.
Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
PER CURIAM:
Derrick Jerome Truttling seeks to appeal the district
court’s order denying his motion to appoint counsel and for a
status conference. This court may exercise jurisdiction only
over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2012), and certain
interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2012);
Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp.,
337 U.S. 541, 545-46 (1949). The order Truttling seeks to
appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory
or collateral order. Accordingly, we deny leave to proceed in
forma pauperis and 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
