RONALD TSOSIE V. JAMES BROWN 2
Ronald Lee Tsosie appeals from the United States Dis-
trict Court for the District of Arizona’s dismissal of his
complaint, asserting violations of the 1868 Navajo Treaty,
his Fifth Amendment due process and equal protection
rights, the Ex Post Facto Clause, federal statutes, the Sixth
Amendment, and a state law claim for legal malpractice.
Tsosie’s complaint does not raise any Little Tucker Act
claims. This court is a court of limited jurisdiction, which
does not include jurisdiction in this matter. 28 U.S.C.
§ 1295.
Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631, this court is authorized
to transfer the case to a court in which the appeal could
have been brought at the time it was filed or noticed.
Transfer is appropriate here.
Accordingly,
I T I S O RDERED T HAT :
(1) The motion to dismiss is denied.
(2) The appeal is transferred pursuant to 28 U.S.C.
§ 1631 to the United States Court of Appeals for the
Ninth Circuit.
