UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT 

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA 

RICARDO MARTINEZ, 

Plaintiff, 

v. 

D. DAVEY, et al., 

 Defendants. 

Case No. 16-03426 EJD (PR) 

ORDER OF TRANSER

Plaintiff, a state prisoner, has filed a pro se complaint pursuant to 42 U.S.C. § 1983, 

against officials at Corcoran State Prison where he is currently confined. Because 

defendants reside in and the acts complained of occurred in Kings County, which lies 

within the venue of the Eastern District of California, see 28 U.S.C. § 84(b), venue 

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

this case is TRANSFERRED to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 

California. See 28 U.S.C. § 1406(a). 

The Clerk shall terminate all pending motions and transfer the entire file to the 

Eastern District of California. 

IT IS SO ORDERED.
