NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

STEVEN TURNER,

Plaintiff,

v.

FLANNIGAN, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 15-cv-00143-JST (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner currently incarcerated at North Kern State Prison has filed a pro 

se civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 against staff at the Los Angeles County Jail, 

where he was previously housed. 

Because the acts complained of occurred in Los Angeles County, which lies within the 

venue of the Central 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 Central District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). 

 The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions and transfer the entire file to the Central 

District of California.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 23, 2015
