IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

ANTHONY V. ALLARA,

Plaintiff, 

 v.

TWO CORRECTIONAL OFFICERS 

AT OLD FOLSOM STATE PRISON, 

Defendants. /

No. C 08-2943 WHA (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

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

occurred at Old Folsom 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. Plaintiff may disregard the clerk’s

notice of in forma pauperis deficiency filed June 12, 2008, because the Eastern District

probably will want to apply its own procedures. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: June 24 , 2008.
