35 35 appeal USCA Order Wed 12/09 11:58 AM
ORDER of USCA as to25 Notice of Appeal to 9th Circuit filed by Judy Mikovits. A review of the record and the response to the USCA's August 28, 2015 order to show cause indicates that the USCA lacks jurisdiction over this appeal because the August 10, 2015 USDC order transferred the matter to the United States District Court for the District of Nevada pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). Accordingly, this appeal is dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. Appellant's alternate request for a writ of mandamus is denied because appellant has not demonstrated that this case warrants the intervention of the USCA by means of the extraordinary remedy of mandamus.

28 28 appeal USCA Order Fri 08/28 11:25 AM
ORDER of USCA as to25 Notice of Appeal to 9th Circuit filed by Judy Mikovits. A review of the record suggests that the USCA may lack jurisdiction over this appeal because the USDC order challenged in this appeal transferred the matter to the United States District Court for the District of Nevada pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). "(O)rders respecting venue entered under § 1404(a) and § 1406(a) are interlocutory in nature and are not appealable prior to final judgment." Within 21 days after the date of this order, appellant shall move for voluntary dismissal of the appeal or show cause why it should not be dismissed for lack of jurisdiction. If appellant does not comply with this order, the Clerk shall dismiss this appeal pursuant to Ninth Circuit Rule 42-1. A review of the USCA's docket also reflects that the filing and docketing fees for this appeal remain due. If appellant elects to show cause, appellant shall also pay to the USDC the $505.00 filing and docketing fees for this appeal and file in the USCA proof of such payment or file in the USCA a motion to proceed in forma pauperis within 21 days after the date of this order. Failure to pay the fees or file a motion to proceed in forma pauperis shall result in the automatic dismissal of the appeal by the Clerk for failure to prosecute. Briefing is suspended pending further order of the USCA. The Clerk shall serve a Form 4 financial affidavit on appellant. (akr)
