No. C 06-6242 JF (PR)

ORDER OF TRANSFER 

(Docket No. 3)

 Plaintiff, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, filed the instant civil rights action

pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 concerning the conditions of his confinement at the

California Conservation Center in Susanville, California. Plaintiff is currently

incarcerated at High Desert State Prison in Susanville. Because the acts complained of

occurred in Lassen County and the Defendants are located in Lassen County, which lies

within the venue of the Eastern District of California, venue properly lies in that district

and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

This case is therefore TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the

Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a).
