Defendants.

Case No. 1:20-cv-00352-SKO (PC) 

ORDER TRANSFERRING CASE TO THE 

SACRAMENTO DIVISION OF THE 

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed this action pursuant to 42 U.S.C.

section 1983. In his complaint, Plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights by Defendants. (See 

Doc. 1.) The alleged violations took place in Shasta County, which is part of the Sacramento 

Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of California. (See id.) 

Therefore, the complaint should have been filed in the Sacramento Division. Local Rule 120(d).

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(f), a civil action that has not been commenced in the proper 

venue may, on the Court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper venue. Therefore, this action 

will be transferred to the Sacramento Division. This Court will not rule on Plaintiff’s pending

request to proceed in forma pauperis (Doc. 2).

Accordingly, the Court ORDERS:

1. This action is transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 

California sitting in Sacramento; and,
