F. RODRIGUEZ, et al.,

Defendants.

No. 2:19-cv-1840 CKD P

ORDER

Plaintiff is a California prisoner proceeding pro se with an action for violation of civil 

rights under 42 U.S.C. § 1983. On March 19, 2020, the court screened plaintiff’s complaint as 

the court is required to do under 28 U.S.C. § 1915A(a). Plaintiff’s complaint was dismissed with 

leave to file an amended complaint. Plaintiff has now filed an amended complaint. In his 

amended complaint, plaintiff alleges violations of his civil rights took place in Kern County, 

which is part of the Fresno Division of this court. See Local Rule 120(d). 

Pursuant to Local Rule 120(f), a civil action may, on the court’s own motion, be 

transferred to the proper division of the court. Therefore, this action will be transferred to the 

Fresno Division.

Good cause appearing, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED that:

1. This action is transferred to the United States District Court for the Eastern District of 

California sitting in Fresno; and
