UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

NATHANIEL MASA WARDEN,

Plaintiff,

v.

THE CITY OF REDDING, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 19-cv-00688-TSH (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. While plaintiff has brought 

this as a habeas case, the action concerns the actions taken by officers of the Redding Police 

Department. Redding is in Shasta County, which lies within the venue of the United States 

District Court for the Eastern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(b). No defendant is 

alleged to reside in, and none of the events or omissions giving rise to the complaint occurred in, 

the Northern District of California. Venue, therefore, properly lies in the Eastern 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). The Clerk shall 

RECLASSIFY this case as one brought under nature of suit 550 and transfer this matter forthwith.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:

THOMAS S. HIXSON
