P ER CURIAM .
O R D E R
In response to the court’s January 18, 2024 show cause
order, Jeffrey Solomon K. Chijioke-Uche urges this court to
retain jurisdiction over these appeals. Appellees have not
responded.
Dr. Chijioke-Uche filed the underlying complaints in
the United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Pennsylvania asserting claims under the Fair Credit Re-
porting Act (“FCRA”) and the Magnuson-Moss Warranty
Act (“MMWA”). He now appeals from the district court’s
orders granting in part the defendants’ motions to strike
his proposed narrative testimony and trial exhibits.
Contrary to Dr. Chijioke-Uche’s assertion, these ap-
peals fall outside the limited authority that Congress
granted this court to review decisions of federal district
courts: 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); and cases involving certain damages
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).
Instead, any appeal in these matters would belong in
the United States Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
See 28 U.S.C. § 1291. We deem it the better course to trans-
fer to that court, where Dr. Chijioke-Uche may raise,
among other things, his arguments regarding 28 U.S.C.
§ 1292. 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
Accordingly,
I T I S O RDERED T HAT :
This matter and all its filings are transferred to the
United States Court of Appeals for Third Circuit pursuant
to 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
