2                        LEWIS   v. GOVERNMENT OF THE DISTRICT

   This case appears to involve a complaint to seize
$66,313,588.85 from the Government of the District of
Columbia. This court is a court of limited jurisdiction,
which does not appear to include jurisdiction over this
matter. 28 U.S.C. § 1295.
      Accordingly,
      IT IS ORDERED THAT:
    (1) Absent a response from the parties within 14 days
of the date of this order, this appeal will be transferred to
the United States Court of Appeals for the District of
Columbia Circuit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
      (2) The briefing schedule is stayed.
                                        FOR THE COURT

                                        /s/ Daniel E. O’Toole
