UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

KEVIN W. JONES,

Plaintiff,

v.

WARDEN DANIEL PARAMO, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 17-cv-06765-HSG (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

Plaintiff, a California inmate incarcerated at the California Medical Facility, has filed a pro 

se civil rights action pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 and Title II of the Americans with Disabilities 

Act of 1990, 42 U.S.C.§ 12101 et seq. (ADA). The alleged violations took place while plaintiff 

was incarcerated at the Richard J. Donovan Correctional Facility (“RJD”). RJD is located in San 

Diego County, within the venue of the Southern District of California. See 28 U.S.C. § 84(d). No 

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

occurred in, the Northern District. Venue therefore is proper in the Southern District, and not in 

this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 1391(b). 

Accordingly, in the interests of justice and pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action is 

TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Southern District of California. The 

Clerk of the Court is directed to transfer the case forthwith. In view of the transfer, the Court will 

not rule upon plaintiff’s request for leave to proceed in forma pauperis or motion for appointment

of counsel.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated:
