M. Mohamed Ali Mirzad, Plaintiff-appellant, v. the United States, Defendant-appellee, 52 F.3d 345 (Fed. Cir. 1995)

M. Mohamed Ali Mirzad (Mirzad) appeals from a decision of the United States Court of Federal Claims, Docket No. 93-751, which dismissed Mirzad's complaint due to lack of jurisdiction. We affirm.

DISCUSSION

Mirzad is an Afghanistan refugee. His complaint seeks assistance for actions that occurred in Pakistan relative to applications for his family to resettle in the United States. The United States Court of Federal Claims has authority to consider a claim and grant relief against the United States only where Congress has provided the court with the power to consider such a claim. Mirzad's complaint has not set forth a claim for money or for other relief that is within the jurisdiction of the Court of Federal Claims.
