    PER CURIAM:
    Adaeze Nwosu seeks to appeal the district court’s order denying Nwosu’s motion
    to recuse the district court judge assigned to her case. 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 order Nwosu seeks to appeal is neither a final order nor an appealable
    interlocutory or collateral order. See In re Va. Elec. & Power Co., 
    539 F.2d 357
    , 364 (4th
    Cir. 1976); accord Mischler v. Bevin, 
    887 F.3d 271
    , 271 (6th Cir. 2018) (per curiam) (“[A]n
    order denying recusal is not immediately appealable under the collateral order doctrine.”).
    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
