IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ALDEN LAMONT MOORE,

Plaintiff,

v.

KAMALA D. HARRIS, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No.: C 13-1692 KAW (PR)

TRANSFER ORDER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, has filed the above pro se civil rights action alleging the violation of 

his rights under the Americans with Disabilities Act, 42 U.S.C. §§ 12101-12213. Plaintiff is 

incarcerated at Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility (RJD), which is located in San Diego County 

in the Southern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(d). A substantial part of the events or 

omissions giving rise to the claims in the complaint occurred at RJD, Plaintiff has alleged no facts 

arising from events or omissions that occurred in the Northern District, and the Defendants, with the 

exception of State Attorney General Kamala Harris, all are employed at RJD. Venue, therefore, 

properly lies in the Southern District and not in the Northern District. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

Accordingly, in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is 

TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. 

The Clerk of the Court shall transfer the case forthwith and terminate all motions and deadlines 

pending on the court docket.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 23, 2013
