LOURIE, Circuit Judge.

ORDER

1

The United States moves to transfer Daniel A. Spacek's appeal pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1631 to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit. Spacek opposes.

[was] that the IRS did not follow the procedures established in the Internal Revenue Code for the assessment and collection of federal taxes." Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. Sec. 1295(a)(2), appeals of such cases belong in the appropriate regional circuit. Further, we note that the Fifth Circuit heard a previous appeal of this case and remanded the case to the district court for further proceedings.

Accordingly,

IT IS ORDERED THAT:

4

The motion to transfer is granted. The Clerk is directed to transfer Spacek's appeal to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit.
