Before WIDENER, HAMILTON, and WILLIAMS, Circuit Judges.
PER CURIAM:
Clearsie Taylor appeals the Benefits Review Board's order vacating in part the Administrative Law Judge's order and remanding the case for further proceedings. 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 (1988), and certain interlocutory and collateral orders, 28 U.S.C.s 1292 (1988); 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 grant Respondent's motion to dismiss and 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
