ORDER OF TRANSFER

Plaintiff, a prisoner at Avenal State Prison, has filed a pro se civil rights

complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 challenging the parole suitability procedures used by

the State of California. A substantial part of the events or omissions giving rise to the

claim(s) occurred, and the viable defendants named reside, in the counties of Kings and

Sacramento, which lie within the venue of the Eastern District of California. See 28

U.S.C. § 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

U.S.C. § 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.
