UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JOSE B. VERA,

Plaintiff,

v.

ROBERT AYERS, warden;

DR. J. FITTER (CMO),

Defendants.

 /

No. C 06-3771 SI (pr)

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Jose B. Vera filed a civil rights complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983, complaining of acts

and omissions relating to his medical care at the California State Prison in Lancaster. Lancaster

is in Los Angeles County, which is within the venue of the Central District of California.

Defendants also apparently reside in the Central District of California. Venue therefore properly

lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). Accordingly, in the interest of

justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is TRANSFERRED to the United States

District Court for the Central District of California. The court has not ruled on any pending

motions. The clerk shall transfer this matter.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
