NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

SAN FRANCISCO DIVISION

ANDREW RAMIREZ,

Plaintiff,

v.

JOHN DOE, 

Defendant. /

No. C 11-0687 RS (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER 

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, has filed a pro se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. 

§ 1983. The acts complained of occurred at Calipatria State Prison in Imperial County,

which is in the Southern District of California, and it appears that the defendant resides in

that district. Venue, therefore, properly lies in that district and not in this one. 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.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
