GLEN HOLLIS,

Plaintiff, No. 2:09-cv-3431 FCD KJN P

vs.

M.S. DUNNING, et al.,

Defendants. ORDER

 /

Plaintiff is a state prisoner proceeding without counsel with a civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983. The instant complaint alleges constitutional violations that took

place at High Desert State Prison by defendants who work at High Desert State Prison. Plaintiff,

however, was recently transferred to the California State Prison in Corcoran. On May 24, 2010,

plaintiff filed a motion seeking medical treatment in which he claims the failure of prison

officials at Corcoran to provide him adequate medical treatment has placed his life in imminent

danger. Plaintiff also raises claims concerning the food service at Corcoran. The alleged 1

violations in plaintiff’s May 24 filing took place in Kings County, which is part of the Fresno

Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. See Local Rule
