PER CURIAM:
Jerome Want seeks to appeal the district court’s orders
denying his motion to recuse the district court judge assigned to
his case, his motion to appoint counsel, and his motion for
reconsideration.

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, 54546 (1949).
orders

nor

The orders Want seeks to appeal are neither final
appealable

interlocutory

or

collateral

orders.

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
