 2                            BRUZZONE   v. INTEL CORPORATION

      Bruzzone appeals from the United States District
 Court for the Northern District of California’s dismissal of
 his action for failure to file an amended complaint. In his
 original complaint, Bruzzone filed a qui tam action
 against Intel Corporation as a relator under the False
 Claims Act, 31 U.S.C. §§ 3729–3733. This court is a court
 of limited jurisdiction, which does not include jurisdiction
 in this matter. 28 U.S.C. § 1295.
     Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631, this court is authorized
 to transfer the case to a court in which the appeal could
 have been brought.
       Upon consideration thereof,
       IT IS ORDERED THAT:
       (1) The motion to dismiss is denied.
     (2) The appeal and all pending motions are trans-
 ferred pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631 to the United States
 Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit.
