Filing 4
ORDER re: Motion to transfer appeal to a different circuit. [ # 7459098-2 ] The motion is DENIED. A court of appeals may transfer a case to another circuit for the purpose of curing a jurisdictional defect, but the receiving court must have jurisdiction. See 28 U.S.C. 1631. With exceptions not relevant here, a court of appeals may only review the judgments of the district courts within its circuit. Id. 1294. So there is no legal basis for the requested intercircuit transfer. If, after briefing is complete, it becomes clear that the full court is recused, the chief judge has the option to certify that fact to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, who may designate judges from another circuit to sit on the panel. Id. at 291(a); In re Skupniewitz , 73 F.3d 702, 705 (7th Cir. 1996). But any request for certification under 291(a) is premature, and indeed that remedy may not be necessary because of the rule of necessity. In re Skupniewitz , 73 F.3d at 705 n.2.
