. O R D E R
In response to this court’s August 29, 2022

, show cause order, the United States urges dismissal of this appeal rather than transfer

. Sister E. Jones

- Bey moves for leave to proceed in forma pauperis and respon ds in favor of this court’s jurisdiction and consolidation with Appeal No. 2022

- 1965 * , or, failing that, request s transfer to the Supreme Court of the United States

. Ms. Jones

- Bey ’s complaint alleg ed various claims against 57 defendants, including c ivil rights violations , violation of her constitutional rights, and conspiracy

. She sought injunctive relief a nd over $250 million in damages. On September 17, 2021, the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York dismissed the complain t but allowed Ms. Jones

- Bey the opportunity to replead certain claims. Ms. Jones

- Bey appealed to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit,

* Appeal No. 2022

- 1965 was transferred on October 18, 2022, to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit. Case: 22-2019 Document: 10 Page: 2 Filed: 11/15/2022JONES

- BEY v. CHEN 3

which dismissed. Following the Second Circuit’s mandate, the district court entered final judgment dismissing the case after Ms. Jones

- Bey failed to timely file an amended complaint. This appeal followed.

A lthough this court possesses jurisdiction to review certain de cisions of federal district courts, that jurisdictionis limited in a way that applies here: this court has jurisdiction only over 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 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). Ms. JonesBey’s case fall s outside of that limited jurisd iction.
Although the government urges dismissal, we deem it the better course to transfer for the appropriate court to consider the issues raised in this appeal

. That court would be the Second Circuit, not the Supreme Court. See 28 U.S.C. § 1251 et seq

. Accordingly

, I T I S O RDERED T HAT : The appeal and all its filings are transferred to theUnited States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
