ORDER REOPENING ACTION AND

OF TRANSFER

On July 13, 2012, the Court dismissed this civil rights action because

Plaintiff, a California inmate, had failed to respond to the Clerk’s notices directing

him to file: 1) a complaint; and 2) pay the filing fee or file an In Forma Pauperis

(“IFP”) Application in the time provided by the Court. (See Docket No. 5.) On July

23, 2012, the Court received Plaintiff’s complaint and IFP application with a notice

from the United States Postal Service indicating mishandled mail. (Docket No. 7.) 

Because it appears that the late filing was not the fault of Plaintiff, the Court will

reopen this action. 

Plaintiff’s complaint alleges that while he was incarcerated at the La Palma

Correctional Center in the State of Arizona, he did not receive proper medical

attention for his cancer although he complained several times to Warden J.

McDonald and other prison staff. (Docket No. 7.) Because the acts complained of

occurred in Arizona, which lies within the venue of the District of Arizona, venue

properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

Accordingly, this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court of

Arizona. See 28 U.S. C. § 1406(a). 

The Clerk shall reopen this action, terminate any pending motions and

transfer the entire file to the District of Arizona.
