ORDER
MICHEL, Circuit Judge.
The court considers, sua sponte, whether Laura A. Brown and J. Gale Brown's appeal should be transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Seventh Circuit.
Upon review of the decision of the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, it appears the Browns' case involves antitrust, RICO, and tort claims against the First State Bank of Harvard et al. Pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1295, this court has no jurisdiction over such a suit. Further, in their notice of appeal, the Browns request that the Federal Court transfer their case if they have mistakenly directed it to the wrong circuit.
Accordingly,
IT IS ORDERED THAT:
Appeal no. 96-1196 is transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1631.
