this Court is not proper. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

When jurisdiction is not founded solely on diversity, venue is proper in the district

in which (1) any defendant resides, if all of the defendants reside in the same state, (2) the

district in which a substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claim

occurred, or a substantial part of property that is the subject of the action is situated, or (3)

a judicial district in which any defendant may be found, if there is no district in which the

action may otherwise be brought. 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). As a substantial part of the

events or omissions giving rise to the claim occurred in the Eastern District, venue

properly lies in that district. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

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

the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S. C. § 1406(a). The Clerk shall terminate

any pending motions and transfer the entire file to the Eastern District of California. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
