GOODE v. COOK 2

Appeal from the United States District Court for the
District of Connecticut in No. 3:20-cv-00210-VAB, Judge
Victor A. Bolden.

P ER CURIAM .
O R D E R
Jason Goode filed a complaint in the United States Dis-
trict Court for the District of Connecticut raising claims un-
der 42 U.S.C. § 1983 relating to his imprisonment. After
the district court granted summary judgment against his
claims, Mr. Goode filed this appeal. In response to this
court’s July 31, 2023, order to show cause, the appellees
urge dismissal of this appeal. Mr. Goode “argues for the
proper transfer[] of this case to the United States Court of
Appeals for the Second Circuit.” ECF No. 16 at 1.
Mr. Goode’s appeal does not fall within the limited au-
thority that Congress granted to this court to review deci-
sions of federal district courts under 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a).
That jurisdiction generally extends to cases arising under
the patent laws, see 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a)(1); civil actions on
review to the district court from the United States Patent
and Trademark Office, see § 1295(a)(4)(C); or certain dam-
ages claims against the United States “not exceeding
$10,000 in amount,” 28 U.S.C. § 1346(a)(2), see 28 U.S.C.
§ 1295(a)(2); 28 U.S.C. § 1292(c)(1). This is not one of those
cases.
Though the appellees urge dismissal, we deem it the
better course to transfer to the United States Court of Ap-
peals for the Second Circuit. 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
Accordingly,
