Mace v. Skinner

Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit

Decided September 6, 1994No. 92-17014PublishedCited by 31 opinions

1Opinion of the Court

LEAVY, Circuit Judge:

In this case we are called upon to determine whether a district court can exercise federal question jurisdiction over a Bivens-type action that challenges conduct arising out of an administrative agency decision, when the relevant statute appears to vest jurisdiction exclusively in the appellate courts. The district court concluded that it lacked subject matter jurisdiction over the action and dismissed the complaint. For the reasons which follow, we vacate the dismissal order and remand for further proceedings.
