  • Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

    PER CURIAM:

    William El seeks to appeal the district court’s order dismissing his complaint without prejudice as to seven defendants and ordering a show of good cause for failure to properly effect service on the other four defendants. 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, 69 S.Ct. 1221, 93 L.Ed. 1528 (1949). The order El 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
