Plaintiff, a prisoner at Salinas Valley State Prison in Soledad, California, has

in Delano, California.

A substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the claims occurred,

and the defendants named reside, in the County of Kern, which lies within the venue of

the Eastern District of California. See 28 USC § 84(b). Venue therefore properly lies

in the Eastern District. See id § 1391(b).

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28

USC § 1406(a) this action be TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for

the Eastern District of California. 

The clerk shall transfer this matter and terminate all pending motions as moot.

SO ORDERED.
