OPINION

PER CURIAM:

1

Thomas Alexander Love and Dan L. Glenn appeal the district court's orders denying class certification and denying a motion to remove appointed counsel and to substitute with new counsel. Love also appeals a notice of proposed settlement hearing. We dismiss the appeals for lack of jurisdiction because the orders are not appealable. This Court may exercise jurisdiction only over final orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1291 (1988), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C. § 1292 (1988); Fed.R.Civ.P. 54(b); Cohen v. Beneficial Industrial Loan Corp., 337 U.S. 541 (1949). The orders here appealed are neither final orders nor appealable interlocutory or collateral orders.

2

We dismiss the appeals 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.
