Filing 18
ORDER re: 1. Appellant's unopposed motion to transfer the appeal to the Fifth Circuit. 2. Appellant's motion to enforce circuit rule 50 requiring district courts to hand down a reasoned opinion, and appellant's request to determine the whereabouts of the interpleader funds. 3. Opposition to motion to transfer. The district courts January 23, 2026, order amending the order disbursing the interpleader funds and February 13, 2026, order directing that the funds be disbursed to interpleader Dr. Alan Braid are consistent with this courts prior affirmation of the district courts decision to abstain from the case. For this reason and because we see no error in the courts rulings, the January 23, 2026, and February 13, 2026, orders are SUMMARILY AFFIRMED. The motion to transfer this appeal to the Fifth Circuit and to require a more reasoned opinion from the district court are DENIED as unnecessary. [ # 14 ] [ # 15 ] Frank H. Easterbrook, Circuit Judge; Candace Jackson-Akiwumi, Circuit Judge and John Z. Lee, Circuit Judge. [18] [7524603] [26-1330] (HTP) [Entered: 05/11/2026 02:17 PM]
