Berliner, Corcoran & Rowe, LLP v. Orian
Docket: No. 2009-1584
Court: Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit; November 8, 2009; Federal Appellate Court
Mordechai Orian and Global Horizons, Inc. filed a motion to transfer their appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit, opposing the response from Berliner, Corcoran, Rowe, LLP, which requested dismissal of the appeal. The appeal concerns a judgment from the United States District Court for the District of Columbia, relating to a contract dispute and malpractice. The court, operating under limited jurisdiction as outlined in 28 U.S.C. § 1295, determined that the case does not fall within its jurisdiction and subsequently granted the motion to transfer the appeal to the appropriate circuit court under 28 U.S.C. § 1631. The appeal is thus officially transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit.
