UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

PATRICK D. SAMPSON,

Plaintiff, No. C 07-3934 PJH (PR) 

v. ORDER OF TRANSFER

C. BARTON,

Defendant(s).

___________________________________/

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. The acts complained of

occurred at High Desert State Prison, which lies within the venue of the United States

District Court for the Eastern District of California. Defendants, who are prison employees,

appear to reside there as well. Venue, therefore, properly lies in that district and not in this

one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b).

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

District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). In view of the transfer, the court will not

rule upon plaintiff's request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis. 

SO ORDERED.

Dated: August 10, 2007 ______________________________
