FOR THE NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

JEROME MARKAY,

Plaintiff, 

 v.

DR. ABDUR-RAHMAN, et al., 

Defendants. /

No. C 07-4255 WHA (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSFER

This is a civil rights case brought pro se by a state prisoner. The acts complained of

occurred at High Desert State Prison, which lies within the venue of the United States District

Court for the Eastern District of California. Defendants, who are prison employees, appear to

reside there as well. Venue, therefore, properly lies in that 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). 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: August 27 , 2007.
