rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. ' 1983. Plaintiff filed the Complaint commencing this

Eastern District of California. (Doc. 1.) On June 16, 2011, the case was transferred to the 

Fresno Division. (Doc. 4.) On June 28, 2011, Plaintiff consented to Magistrate Judge 

jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 636(c) in this action, and no other parties have made an 

appearance. (Doc. 8.)
