   Appeal from the United States District Court for the
Eastern District of Texas in No. 13-CV-0255, Judge
Michael H. Schneider.
              __________________________

                       PER CURIAM.
                       ORDER
    The court considers whether this appeal should be
transferred to the United States Court of Appeals for the
Fifth Circuit.
    Henry W. Wooten appeals from a judgment of the
United States District Court for the Eastern District of
Texas, which denied his petition for a writ of habeas
corpus and dismissed his case. This court is a court of
limited jurisdiction, which does not appear to include
jurisdiction in this matter. 28 U.S.C. § 1295.
