	United States v. F.S.J.
		The Attorney General (or by delegation pursuant to regulation, the United States Attorney) must certify, among other things, "that there is a substantial Federal interest in the case or the offense to warrant the exercise of Federal jurisdiction." The issue in this appeal is whether the prosecutor' s certification is subject to judicial review.
		The district court declined to review the United States Attorney' s certification citing First, Third, Fifth, Eighth, Eleventh, and D.C. Circuit decisions holding that "certification based on a substantial federal interest by the Government is not subject to judicial review." The district court found the certification regular on its face and timely filed.
		Therefore, we join the majority of our sister circuits and hold that the United States Attorney' s certification of a "substantial federal interest" under § 5032 is not subject to judicial review except for such formalities as timeliness and regularity (e.g., signed by the proper official) and for allegations of unconstitutional prosecutorial misconduct.
