In Re AKKIMA DANNIELLE BRISCOE, Petitioner ______________________

2026-114 ______________________

On Petition for Writ of Mandamus to the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Island in No. 1:25- cv-00398-JJM-PAS, Judge John J. McConnell, Jr. ______________________

ON PETITION ______________________

PER CURIAM. ORDER On October 27, 2025, following a show-cause order, the United States District Court for the District of Rhode Is- land dismissed Akkima Dannielle Briscoe’s complaint, which sought, among other relief, $14,000 from state and federal officials. On November 14, 2025, this court received a filing from Ms. Briscoe styled as a petition for a writ of mandamus, seeking relief in that matter. We transfer. In general, we only have jurisdiction over an appeal from a final district court decision in cases involving the patent laws, see 28 U.S.C. § 1295(a)(1); civil actions on re- view to the district court from the United States Patent and Case: 26-114 Document: 4 Page: 2 Filed: 12/15/2025

2 IN RE BRISCOE

Trademark Office, see id. § 1295(a)(4)(C); and cases involv- ing certain damages claims against the United States not exceeding $10,000 in amount, id. §§ 1295(a)(2), 1346(a)(2). Ms. Briscoe’s case does not fall within any of those catego- ries, such that we lack jurisdiction.1 We further conclude that transfer to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit is appropriate under the circumstances of this case. See 28 U.S.C. §§ 41, 1291, 1294, 1631. Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED THAT: This matter and all case filings are transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the First Circuit pursu- ant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631. FOR THE COURT

December 15, 2025 Date

1 Although Ms. Briscoe styles her filing as a petition for a writ of mandamus, by its terms 28 U.S.C. § 1651 only permits this court to “issue all writs necessary or appropri- ate in aid of [this court’s] respective jurisdiction[],” which does not include her district court case.
