    UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS


    FOR THE FOURTH CIRCUIT

    No. 99-6862

    PIERRE A. RENOIR,
    Plaintiff - Appellant,
    versus
    KAREN MILLER, M.D.; ROANOKE CITY JAIL,
    Defendants - Appellees.

    Appeal from the United States District Court for the Western District of Virginia, at Roanoke. Samuel G. Wilson, Chief District
    Judge. (CA-99-330-7)

    Submitted:

    August 19, 1999

    Decided:

    August 26, 1999

    Before WIDENER and KING, Circuit Judges, and PHILLIPS, Senior Circuit Judge.

    Dismissed by unpublished per curiam opinion.


    Pierre A. Renoir, Appellant Pro Se.

    Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.


    See Local Rule 36(c).

    PER CURIAM:
    Pierre Renoir appeals a district court order denying his motion for appointment of counsel.

    We dismiss the appeal for lack of

    jurisdiction because the order is not appealable.

    This court may

    exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. 1291


    (1994), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C.
    1292 (1994); Fed. R. Civ. P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Indus.
    Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949).

    The order here appealed is

    neither a final order nor an appealable interlocutory or collateral


    order.
    We dismiss the appeal as interlocutory. 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
