     Appeal from the United States District Court for the
 District of Connecticut in No. 3:20-cv-00210-VAB, Judge
 Victor A. Bolden.
                   ______________________
 PER CURIAM.
                          ORDER
      Jason Goode filed a complaint in the United States Dis-
 trict Court for the District of Connecticut raising claims un-
 der 42 U.S.C. § 1983 relating to his imprisonment. After
 the district court granted summary judgment against his
 claims, Mr. Goode filed this appeal. In response to this
 court’s July 31, 2023, order to show cause, the appellees
 urge dismissal of this appeal. Mr. Goode “argues for the
 proper transfer[] of this case to the United States Court of
 Appeals for the Second Circuit.” ECF No. 16 at 1.
     Mr. Goode’s appeal does not fall within the limited au-
 thority that Congress granted to this court to review deci-
 sions of federal district courts under 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a).
 That jurisdiction generally extends to 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 dam-
 ages 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). This is not one of those
 cases.
     Though the appellees urge dismissal, we deem it the
 better course to transfer to the United States Court of Ap-
 peals for the Second Circuit. 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
     Accordingly,
Case: 23-2023    Document: 20    Page: 3   Filed: 10/18/2023

 GOODE v. COOK                                            3

    IT IS ORDERED THAT:
    The appeal and all its filings are transferred to the
 United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit pur-
 suant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
