GEORGE RED,

Plaintiff,

v.

QUINCY HECK, et al.,

Defendants.

Case No. 16-cv-00201-JD 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. Plaintiff states that doctors at 

United States Prison Lompoc failed to properly treat him in 1995. United States Prison Lompoc is 

located in within the venue of the United States District Court for the Central District of 

California. Venue, therefore, properly lies in that district and not in this one. See 28 U.S.C. § 

1391(b). While this case may be time barred and plaintiff also filed an earlier case in the Central 

District with many of the same defendants, Red v. Heck, Case No. 96-cv-3325-WDK-RZ, those 

determinations will be made in the Central District.

This case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Central 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,

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: January 26, 2016
