Unpublished opinions are not binding precedent in this circuit.

PER CURIAM:

Patrick Vincent Tyler seeks to appeal the magistrate judge’s order granting the Appellee’s motion for an extension of time in which to file a response to Tyler’s 28 U.S.C.A. § 2255 (West Supp. 2009) motion, and denying Tyler’s petition for judgment. This court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (2006), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (2006);

The order Tyler 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 the court and argument would not aid the decisional process.

DISMISSED.
