ORDER OF TRANSFER

(Dkt. #4)

Plaintiff, a prisoner at California State Prison, Los Angeles County (LAC), has

filed a pro se complaint under 42 U.S.C. § 1983 alleging racial discrimination in the

composition and policies of the Board of Parole Hearings (BPH). A substantial part of

the events or omissions giving rise to the claim(s) occurred, and the sole named

defendant – BPH Executive Officer Jennifer P. Shaffer --resides, in the County of

Sacramento, which lies within the venue of the Eastern District of California. See 28

U.S.C. § 84(b). Venue therefore properly lies in the Eastern District. See id. § 1391(b).

Accordingly, IT IS ORDERED that, in the interest of justice and pursuant to 28

U.S.C. § 1406(a), this action be TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for

the Eastern District of California. 

The clerk shall transfer this matter and terminate all pending motions as moot.

SO ORDERED.
