Description

1. This appeal is properly before us. In Wabol v. Villacrusis, 908 F.2d 411 (9th Cir. 1990), we held that the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands had no power to "divest this court of jurisdiction over appeals properly filed from a final order of the appellate division of the district court entered before the passage of the [Commonwealth Judicial Reorganization Act of 1989]." Id. at 419. Because plaintiff's appeal was filed before passage of the Act, we retain jurisdiction.
