    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT
    No. 17-1046
    BARRY J. BLUEFELD,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    v.
    BARRY S. COHEN; JOEL S. MEISEL; DAVID H. COHEN,
    Defendants - Appellees.
    Appeal from the United States District Court for the District of Maryland, at Greenbelt.
    Paula Xinis, District Judge. (8:15-cv-02857-PX)
    Submitted: May 23, 2017                                           Decided: May 25, 2017

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Wayne, Pennsylvania, for Appellees.
    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.
    PER CURIAM:
    Barry J. Bluefeld seeks to appeal the district court’s order directing him to obtain
    counsel or face dismissal of his pending derivative shareholder action. 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 Bluefeld 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 deny Bluefeld’s motion
    for 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
