NOTE: This order is nonprecedential.

United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ______________________ RAVEL FERRERA PARRA, Plaintiff-Appellant v. UNITED STATES, Defendant-Appellee ______________________ 2025-1527 ______________________ Appeal from the United States Court of Federal Claims in No. 1:25-cv-00428-AOB, Judge Armando O. Bonilla. ______________________ ON MOTION ______________________ PER CURIAM.

ORDER Ravel Ferrera Parra brought this suit at the United States Court of Federal Claims asserting that the Social Security Administration’s denial of benefits, withholding of funds, and classifying him as a “security threat” amounted to an illegal exaction and taking of his property without just compensation in violation of the Fifth Amendment.

The Court of Federal Claims dismissed the complaint for lack of jurisdiction. This appeal followed. The United Case: 25-1527 Document: 12 Page: 2 Filed: 05/19/2025

2 PARRA v. US

States now moves to summarily affirm. Mr. Parra opposes and requests various reliefs. ECF No. 11.

Summary disposition is appropriate here because there is no “substantial question regarding the outcome” of the appeal. Joshua v. United States, 17 F.3d 378, 380 (Fed. Cir. 1994) (citation omitted). We have long recognized that the Social Security Act’s comprehensive remedial scheme for SSA benefits claims displaces the Court of Federal Claims’s jurisdiction under the Tucker Act in a case like this. See Marcus v. United States, 909 F.2d 1470, 1471 (Fed. Cir. 1990); 42 U.S.C. § 405(g) and (h) (routing actions concerning the denial of social security benefits to district court). To the extent Mr. Parra is arguing that the Court of Federal Claims has jurisdiction to compel SSA action wrongfully withheld, that argument is likewise meritless.

See generally Vereda, Ltda. v. United States, 271 F.3d 1367, 1374 n.8 (Fed. Cir. 2001) (“[T]he Court of Federal Claims lack[s] the general federal question jurisdiction of the dis- trict courts, which would have allowed it to review the agency’s actions and to grant relief pursuant to the Admin- istrative Procedure Act[.]” (citations omitted)).

Accordingly, Case: 25-1527 Document: 12 Page: 3 Filed: 05/19/2025

PARRA v. US 3

IT IS ORDERED THAT: (1) The United States’s motion is granted. The judg- ment of the United States Court of Federal Claims is sum- marily affirmed. (2) ECF No. 11 is denied. (3) Each party shall bear its own costs.
