2 B. K. v. SANTA MONICA-MALIBU SCHOOL DISTRICT

dismissing their complaint alleging various state claims and civil rights and constitutional violations. In light of the subject matter of the underlying case, this court di- rected the parties to show cause why this court has juris- diction over the appeal. Neither party has responded. We determine that this case should be transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit. Our jurisdiction to review decisions of federal district courts generally extends only to cases arising under the pa- tent 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 cases involving certain damages claims against the United States “not ex- ceeding $10,000 in amount,” 28 U.S.C. § 1346(a)(2), see 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a)(2). This case is outside of that limited sub- ject matter jurisdiction. We conclude it is appropriate pur- suant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631 to transfer this appeal to where it “could have been brought at the time it was filed,” in this instance the Ninth Circuit. 28 U.S.C. §§ 41, 1291, 1294. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: The appeal and all its filings are transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit pur- suant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631. FOR THE COURT
