UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

JESSE C. WELLS, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

CDCR EMPLOYEES, et al., 

 Defendants. 

Case No. 19-07932 EJD (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, filed a pro se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 

1983 against employees at “CHCF (Stockton)” which refers to the California Health Care 

Facility in Stockton. (Docket No. 1 at 1-2.) Because defendants appear to reside in and 

the acts complained of occurred in San Joaquin County, which lies within the venue of the 

Eastern District of California, see 28 U.S.C. § 84(b), venue properly lies in that district and 

not in this one. 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 all pending motions and transfer the entire file to the 

Eastern District of California.
