  • Order
ORDER (CHAGARES, RESTREPO and SCIRICA, Circuit Judges) Petitioner's petition for a writ of mandamus concerns a patent infringement action originating in this Circuit over which the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit has exclusive appellate jurisdiction and exclusive mandamus jurisdiction. See In re Arunachalam, 812 F.3d 290, 292-94 (3d Cir. 2016) (per curiam). Thus, the Clerk is directed to transfer petitioner's mandamus petition and her motion to waive the filing fee to the United States Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit. Petitioner previously submitted her petition and motion to the Federal Circuit, but that court's Clerk transferred them to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit, which then transferred them to us. It appears that the Federal Circuit's Clerk transferred them to the Ninth Circuit because petitioner captioned her petition as being filed in the Ninth Circuit (where she contemporaneously filed similar mandamus petitions relating to actions within that Circuit). We express no opinion on how the Federal Circuit should treat petitioner's submissions. Because we lack jurisdiction over those submissions, however, we request that any court in the future refrain from transferring them back to us, filed. Panel No.: CLD-018. Chagares, Authoring Judge.
