PER CURIAM.

ORDER

This is an appeal from a civil action asserting claims under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 for alleged violations of Nicholas Cole’s constitutional rights. Radames Gonce and Sloane Porto move with consent to transfer the appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, stat- ing that Mr. Cole filed his appeal with this court in error. We agree that we lack jurisdiction over this appeal, see 28 Case: 23-1601 Document: 8 Page: 2 Filed: 04/24/2023 2 COLE v. GONCE U.S.C. § 1295, and that it would be in the interest of justice to transfer the appeal to the Second Circuit. See 28 U.S.C. § 1631.

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT:

The motion to transfer is granted. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631, this case and all transmittals are trans- ferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit.
