IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NEIL DARROW,

Petitioner, No. CIV S-04-0762 GEB PAN P

vs.

SCRIBNER, Warden,

Respondent. ORDER

 /

Petitioner, a state prisoner proceeding pro se, has filed an application for a writ of

habeas corpus pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. Petitioner challenges a decision finding him

unsuitable for parole. Petitioner was convicted Sacramento County but he is confined in Kings

County. Since petitioner challenges the duration of his confinement, venue lies in the court

sitting where he is confined. See Dunne v. Henman, 875 F.2d 244, 249 (9th Cir. 1989). Kings

County is in the Fresno Division of the United States District Court for the Eastern District of

California. See Local Rule 3-120(d). 

Pursuant to Local Rule 3-120(f), a civil action which has not been commenced in

the proper division of a court may, on the court’s own motion, be transferred to the proper

division. Therefore, this action will be transferred to the Fresno Division of the court.
