UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS

FOR THE TENTH CIRCUIT

In re: NARCIZO RODRIGUEZ

CAMACHO,

Movant.

No. 10-1146

ORDER

Before HARTZ, GORSUCH, and HOLMES, Circuit Judges.

Narcizo Rodriguez Camacho has filed a motion for authorization to file a

second or successive 28 U.S.C. § 2255 motion to vacate, set aside or correct

sentence. Although Mr. Camacho is imprisoned at the federal correctional facility

in Florence, Colorado, his sentence was imposed by the United States District

Court for the Western District of Texas. A prisoner “may move the court which

imposed the sentence to vacate, set aside or correct the sentence.” 28 U.S.C.

§ 2255. Before a prisoner may file a second or successive § 2255, however, he

must move “in the appropriate court of appeals” for authorization. 28 U.S.C.

§ 2244(b)(3)(A); see also id. § 2255(h) (incorporating certification process

outlined in § 2244). Because Mr. Camacho needs authorization to file his

successive § 2255 in the Western District of Texas, the “appropriate court of

appeals” in which to file a motion for authorization is the Fifth Circuit, not this

court. See generally 28 U.S.C. § 41 (delineating the composition of the thirteen

judicial circuits). Accordingly, this matter is DISMISSED.
