PER CURIAM:
Barton Joseph Adams seeks to appeal the district
court’s April 15, 2011 order denying his motions to vacate the
district court’s November 21, 2008 protective and repatriation
order, as modified on December 9, 2008, and the court’s March
20, 2009 order holding him in civil contempt. The jurisdiction
of this court to review orders originating in the district court
is limited to final decisions and certain, specified,
interlocutory and collateral orders. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 1291,
1292 (2006); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus. Loan Corp., 337 U.S.
541, 545-47 (1949). The district court’s order is neither a
final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral order.
Additionally, because the district court’s April 15 order is not
a release or detention order, it is not appealable under
18 U.S.C. § 3145(c) (2006).
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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional
process.
DISMISSED
